heavy banana and caramel brought together by oak. heavy old banana on the taste. too sweet, too vanilla.... not for me long finish of banana sooth $15

NOM 1499 | For some reason has a much harsher finish than the repo, must be the oak flexing its muscles?! Light and super easy drinking, I am a fan.

NOM 1107 | Mexican 36% release. Nose: Earth and mineral start with an herbal note. Caramel, vanilla, and brown sugar. Flavor: Fruit and baked agave, nuttiness and slightly bitter pepper notes. Finish: It has a boldness that I like in the slightly rough finish.

A soft aroma of butterscotch and oak with a hint of clove - quite lovely. Taste of oak, vanilla, white pepper ripe bananas and ripe melon. Decent, especially for the price of Anejo.

Noticeable smokiness
