Nose - sweet tobacco, smoked pepper, butterscotch, creamy vanilla, cooked agave, nutmeg, clove, green pepper, apple, pear, cinnamon, grape, light grassy earthiness, moderate ethanol burn.
Taste - butterscotch, creamy vanilla, cooked agave, tobacco, cocoa, nutmeg, cinnamon, clove, pear, apple, fresh cut grass, ginger, chili pepper, green wood, powdered sugar, floral notes, mild to moderate alcohol bite, finishing medium length with sweet cooked agave, caramel, ginger, and baking spice flavors.
In my opinion, this is better than the Silver and Reposado offerings. The bright crispness of the Silver is here. There is very little of the Reposado’s vegetal funk. It’s certainly the sweetest of the three, with the caramel, baking spice, and apple notes presenting strongly. I don’t think I like it quite as much as Don Julio Anejo, and it’s absolutely a step down from Fortaleza and Pasote, but overall this is a decent sipper.
