Sensory Description
A stunning honey hue sets the tone for this tequila's layered aromas and flavors. The nose opens with an intriguing briny note, balanced by light honey, oak, and subtle cooked agave. Delicate herbal undertones, hints of caramel, and faint whispers of banana and dill add to its aromatic complexity. On the palate, the whiskey barrel aging introduces soft notes of wood, caramel, and mocha, mingling with citrus, green bell pepper, and mint. The boldness of the high-proof alcohol provides structure without overpowering the tasting experience, while a touch of minerality and a sweet finish leave a lasting impression.
