Nose - stewed agave, black and white pepper, minerality, clove, oily sautéed vegetables, vegetal earthiness, nutmeg, mild briny smoke, mint, grassiness, lemon lime citrus, moderate ethanol burn. Taste - sweet cooked agave, ginger, creamy vanilla, black pepper, citrus zest, rocky minerality, mint, nutmeg, clove, savory brine, fresh cut grass, mild to moderate alcohol bite, finishing medium length with vegetal, cooked agave, and ginger citrus flavors. This is a really nice one, and an amazing value. It’s almost half the price of Patron Silver and I find the nose and palate to be richer and more interesting. I think this is slightly better than the Olmeca Altos Reposado. It is a mainstay on my bar and has become the house tequila for cocktails, although it’s not at all a disappointing sipper, just not quite as full and complex as some of the hallowed expressions from NOM 1579 and 1139 to name a few.
