AMM blind: when I first smelled this one (after resting for 20 minutes), I got inauthentic aromas. The more time I spent with it, the inauthenticity gave way to a floral sweetness. The taste is light, and I detect light agave and sweetness. The finish is nice, but overall, not a memorable expression.
AMM Blind Tasting Notes: Aroma: decent nose cooked agave, anise, green veg Palate: herbal and floral decently, sweet cooked agave, some black pepper, medium body Finish: pretty sharp pepper, finish clean and crisp not remarkable not bad, but solid Original Notes: Initial nose has overly cooked/stewed fruit with a slight funk to it. Maybe some candied cherry. As it opens up it becomes less intense. On the palate there’s an initial medicinal burst with faint candied fruit. Hints of mint and anise. Not much burn at all. Clean mouthfeel. Very short finish with some white pepper. This had a lot of stages of scent and flavors over a 10 min span as it opened up but nothing overly complex and was fairly muted over time. A decent mixer for the price.
The nose and flavor is light. Expected from a Cristalino. I do get some nice cooked agave. There is a balance between bitter and sweet. It is interesting. I did pick up some nice fruitiness. If finish is a little short. Best repo Cristalino I have had.
Light and very easy drinking anejo with subtle sweetness. Not a bourbon mimic, this has a lot of agave still present. Excellent, affordable anejo option.
