nose and vegetal palate but nice heat pepper finish

nice beautiful nose with some pepper. Palate is decent

Aroma: 22/25 Dense deep agave which is cooked but not fully. Still some raw agave characteristics. White pepper, red grape skins, and undeniably sweet. A dense sweetness. Maybe a hint of charcoal in the backend. Palate: 26/30 Very nice mouth feel and heft. Sweet cooked agave on the tip of my tongue. Buttery light vanilla soon follows. Fruit of cherries, dried mango, plum, and candied pineapple in the mid accompanied by a fading ethanol presence. Finish: 23/25 Very warming and sweet. A Kentucky hug feel but we can call it Mexico hug to keep it relatable for non bourbon fans. Long deep sweet agave finish. Value: 6/10 $80 in San Francisco at K&L. This is a quality still strength tequila for sure. Especially from a more craft like brand.
