I tried this in a snifter at home after my brother picked it up for my in NY for $62.
At first blush I was disappointed with the nose on this - more alcohol smell than I was expecting (even more than some cheap brands) with a strong floral aroma, but as it sat for just a couple minutes it opened up with some softer floral notes, nut, and honey. Not one of my favorite smelling tequilas, but I don't drink it for the smell, which became very clear to me as soon as I tasted this beauty!
A very sweet initial taste full of butter, carmel, citrus, agave, smoke and vanilla. I was very delighted when this hit my tongue. It is thick, but not too syrupy - a very nice consistency.
The finish was nice and long with a nice presence of the sweet agave, slight citrus, vanilla, and a hint of smoke, but also a bit more of an alcohol presence than I expected. Very good tequila... one of the most interesting I've tried, and certainly one I'll be having more of!
