The aromas are led by pepperiness. Fruity apple and an undercurrent of roasted agave are joined by sweet cream and a hint of wood smoke. The pepper leads the way on the palate, but doesn’t get in the way of the fruit and cream from the nose. The time spent in wood has added more spice to the already spicy spirit, although it has also rounded off some of the edges. The finish is spicy, but not spiky. Fades very slowly. A more restrained Tequila than the Blanco and aged for four months in ex-bourbon casks, two months longer than the law dictates.
