On opening this bottle you receive a delightful aroma of roasted almonds, fresh cut flowers, caramel, and butterscotch. There is also a nice backing of oak.
With the first sip you will notice a very sweet oily entrance. I felt that the sweetness gave me a cold tingling sensation, which is very refreshing in the hot summer months.
The light to medium body is mildly complex with a slight taste of iodine and minimal alcohol numbing. There is a good base of oak over roasted nuts and vanilla. The agave taste is not over powered by the wood, and you can find in the sweetness a touch of tropical fruit.
I personally enjoy the stronger wood characteristics of this tequila, but it's not for everyone. It leaves a nice long finish of agave and wood blended in harmony together.
