House Review
-
Intro:
copper ejutla
-
Nose:
Lush and sweet. Lots of vanilla, cream sweetness, butter and a faint anise.
-
Taste:
Palate is also sweet in an incredibly buttery dimension. Desserty, with a hint of cocoa, some earthiness. Nice mineral quality with plenty of cream and sweetness. Not a lot - or any at all - of fruit character. Smoke is absent.
-
Finish:
Short to medium finish. More ash forward here than anywhere else (first sign of smoke) and it’s fairly one dimensional.
-
Overall:
Good nose, great palate, sort of pedestrian finish. It’s hard to knock this Ensemble, but it’s a little inconsistent.
