Aroma: vanilla, honey, peach, cooked agave, flowers, herbal Taste: strong herbal, agave, white pepper, vanilla; not too much barrel influence The aroma is nice, if a bit sweet. But overall it has some interesting layers to it. The flavor starts more herbal than I prefer, and it’s got a thin mouthfeel and dry finish that’s probably better for newbies.

On the nose, I immediately picked up plenty of cooked agave along with light peach and honey notes. There’s a pleasant barrel spice that reminds me of cinnamon, along with touches of oak, caramel, and even a little vanilla. As it opens up, a subtle herbal note starts to show itself, adding another layer of character. The palate follows through nicely from the aroma. Cooked agave remains the star of the show, supported by floral notes, light honey, soft peach, and that same herbal character I found on the nose. Nothing here feels overdone or out of balance. Is this the most complex reposado I’ve ever tasted? No. But that’s not really the point. What it delivers is a collection of well-integrated flavors that work together extremely well. The mouthfeel is smooth and satisfying, the finish is long, and the overall profile is balanced from start to finish.

Loved this tequila!!
