Update: I tried to be open about the sweetness but after a few nights and a few side by side comparisons, my rating changed from 80 to current. Aroma is with pronounced anise, distinct sweetness indicative of this NOM, vanilla, scathing ethyl, and a lift of citrus. Palate: Peppermint and anise lead the entry, followed by a savory snap of salinity. Kiwi–lemon citrus brightens the mid-palate while plum and subtle berry add variety. A measured crack of pepper provides challenge without overwhelming the fruit, while the same constant overt sweetness, which is indicative of this NOM, stands out. Finish: Medium in length, with clinging cooked agave, saline, and pepper.

Very Barrel influenced with Oak, Vanilla, and Caramel. Has a little extra sweetness. Agave is present, but not the main attraction...

Agave on the nose with citrus and earth. I get vanilla, herbal and butter. I get some fruit, maybe banana. On the palate, sweet agave, vanilla and black pepper. I get earthy notes with minerals and vegetal tones. It is a bit grassy. Definitely some alcohol. This is a decent tequila but nothing special.
