Bottle: 1 ra Edicion Limitada, 6000 Botellas, 0406, L 270814DFR001 Appearance: Dark straw Nose: Cooked agave, flowers, jasmine, orange blossom, melon rind, oak, cinnamon, baking spice, vanilla, butter, mint, alcohol, dry earth, honey, and plum…sweet, light, and floral Palate: Cooked agave, oak, barrel spice, cinnamon, vanilla, black pepper, dry earth, alcohol, raisin, coffee, flowers, jasmine, pine resin, baking spice, charcoal, and molasses…less floral and more oaky than the nose, with a slight bitterness Finish: Coffee, charcoal, butter, cinnamon, baking spice, and barrel spice…medium and warming, but ramps up the bitterness Overall: The nose on this was really nice and, despite the harshness on the tail end, this is still quite enjoyable to sip. It was strange, though, because the finish felt out of place given the lightness and sweetness of the aromas. I was able to get a pretty good deal on the bottle and am glad that I got to try it.
