Taste - cinnamon, dry vanilla, black pepper, ginger, nutmeg, briny vegetal earthiness, green pepper, nondescript herbal or floral notes, citrus zest, light cooked agave, mild to moderate alcohol bite, finishing short and slightly sweet, salty, and dank with faint agave and pepper flavors.
This is a quality made tequila with a very average nose and palate. Nothing stands out as particularly off putting, but at the same time, there’s nothing to love about it either. At ~$30 near me, this isn’t unreasonably priced, but I’d rather pick up an Olmeca Altos Plata for a few bucks less. Thank you to @ContemplativeFox for generously providing the sample.

@ContemplativeFox Thanks! It’s definitely middle of the road. With tequila these days (especially with the poor selection in many places), however, sometimes that’s about as much as you can hope for.
Great notes :) I don't mind this either, but for $30, I'd buy Cabeza (if I could find it).
