- Excerpt: Sweet, heavy oak nose, pang of ethanol, syrupy sweet agave. Thin mouth feel, not a lot going on. No heat. Agave, light smoke, faint oak, pepper. This is interesting but not exceptional. I don't really pick up much on the barrel influence, and there wasn't a ton going on in the first place.

- Excerpt: Dried fruits, golden apple, vanilla, and dark caramel combined with cinnamon and nutmeg further enhance the liquid pie quality. This is a good one to recommend for those who prefer a sweeter, richer style of añejo, but it seems to cover up most of the true agave essence.

House Review
-
Intro:
This is a tequila product that spends 18 months aging in a combination of sauternes and cognac barrels. Really interesting concept.
-
Nose:
Sweet, heavy oak nose, pang of ethanol, syrupy sweet agave.
-
Taste:
Thin mouth feel, not a lot going on. No heat. Agave, light smoke, faint oak, pepper.
-
Finish:
Short, a bit hot, loaded with pepper, faint smoke, some sweet cream and berry and then it's gone.
-
Overall:
This is interesting but not exceptional. I don't really pick up much on the barrel influence, and there wasn't a ton going on in the first place.
