The first thing I get is cooked agave, followed by some vanilla, light caramel and a little oak. On the palate, it’s smooth and easy to drink, with the agave still showing through. I also get some baking spice and a touch of sweetness from the barrel. The finish is medium, warm and slightly sweet, with the agave and spice lingering for a bit. Overall, I really enjoyed this one. I like that the barrel adds some character without taking away from the agave. It feels balanced and very easy to sip.
