Bottle #12 of the Flaviar Agave Advent box. Decent enough considering some of the other product in the kit.

Nom 1438 doesn’t usually work well for me. Nose a little funky light agave minerals grass and some melon and Carmel. Taste light cooked agave it has a nice barrel note some Carmel Finish hangs on with a little mint and cooked agave Over all a good Joven!

[Rated blind] There’s a little bit of fermentation funk here (which I like), with minerals, melon, and hay. Flavor has a musty quality to it. It’s got a thick mouthfeel and vanilla that comes in the finish. There’s some cooked agave, but it comes at the end of the finish. Overall, this is a subtle tequila, but it’s balanced and approachable.

got it for 30$ so for the price is really good, I seen it for over 60$ I wouldn't buy it for the liquid but for the bottle yes. the joven is a 80% repo and 20% blanco, and it is sweet agave follow flby that punchy oak, then it finish with light pepper and citrus. you can definitely taste the repo being mix with a blanco, like you can tell in the taste the separation , therefore I can't say is a well balanced but still very easy to sip.
