The nose is phenomenal, banana and crème caramel, makes you wanna five right in the bottle. Super boozy, threw me off as I expected silky smooth but this has some serious fire in its guts. The barrel, unsurprisingly, is doing most of the talking here, I can actually still find some agave when I go digging for it but this has the pedigree of a great whisky. Don’t let me score fool you, it lost major points on value(is anything worth that much?!) but this is delightful and a well made tequila. I count myself lucky to even have the chance to taste.
