Initial aromas of cinnamon, cooked agave with some citrus, and a faint amount of oak. Also has a certain sweetness that is reminiscent of Ecuadorian Miske. The flavor carries more of that cinnamon, with a certain element of honey, some vegetal agave, and black pepper. On the finish the sweetness fades, leaving notes of sweet cinnamon, similar in ways to Hot Tamales candy, some black pepper, and a bit of heat.
Quite earthy on the aroma, with a mix of vegetal cucumber, lime citrus, some sage, anise, and a slight salinity. On the palate, very citrusy up front, followed by a nice hit of vegetal notes complemented by black pepper, earth, and sage. There is also a hint of vanilla in there as well. The finish leaves behind mostly herbal notes, as well as a fair bit of black pepper, some heat, and another hint of vanilla.
Aplomo ANEJO Nose: tropical fruit with some caramel and vanilla; subtle, mild alcohol.The yeast and sulfa that I got with the blanco is not there. Palate: easy, subtle barrel notes and fruit/tropical notes, mild oak Finish: warm, dry This is my favorite of the three expressions
Aplomo REPO Nose: more approachable than the blanco; barrel spice, not a lot of agave, some vanilla caramel, oak, alcohol and pepper. The first time i tried this (neck pour), i got a hint of yeast and sulfa in the back, which was more apparent the longer it sat. But, i'm revisiting and the sulfa is gone. Nose is pretty good. Palate: not as good as the nose. But not offputting. Subtle, barrel spice, vanilla, oak, not much agave, with a mild bitterness Finish: dry, quick, there's a bitterness on the end
Aplomo BLANCO Nose: sulfa, hay, yeast, as it opened i got some floral notes, a mild agave, mint chocolate! and pepper, but the sulfa scent is still there at the end Palate: better than the nose. Sweetness and pepper. Quickly fades into a peppery finish. Its decent, not complex, not offensive Finish: pepper and a mild bitterness

An aroma of primarily caramel, with a light minerality, sweet cinnamon, and a fair bit of apple pie. The flavors are somewhat muted, a sweet caramel profile with the same cinnamon apple pie notes from the aroma. The finish is short, mostly cinnamon and a honey-like sweetness.
