Full-bodied, thick, creamy, and silky. Delicate smell of boiled agave, a dried wood presence with cinnamon, rose lips and a vanilla touch. It possesses a very dark amber color, showing its barrel aging. The taste confirms the boiled agave and the smooth wooden texture. Creamy to the palate and very subtle when swallowed. Very elegant.
The initial nosing passes find resiny, textile-like notes; following aeration time an oaky sweetness emerges in the aromatic form of malted milk and pastry dough. Entry is slightly fat, with an oaky creaminess; the midpalate offers earthy tastes of egg cream, peppery spice, jalapeño pepper, dill leaf and nutmeg. Concludes on an off-dry note that’s nicely peppery and woody.— P.P. (2/1/2009) — 90-95
