rated blind. This was 3 of 4 for my palate.
Deeper barrel flavors than you normally get from a Repasoda, nice Carmel and fruit tones on the bottle. Nice sipper
Aroma: Earthy Cooked Agave and Cinnamon meet you immediately. Vanilla and Caramel are more forward than Oak, but all are present. Being familiar with Tobacco barns, there is a distinctive Tobacco and Musty quality that I just love! A touch of Herbalness reaches out as well. As this opens up over time, the Barrel influences become apparent with nice Baking Spices and an accompaniment of Cocoa Nibs. And a touch of Dried Fruit reaches out. Taste: Sweet Agave meets Vanilla and Caramel at the door! The Oak influence from being in the Barrel brings a nice Spice of Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and other Baking Spices. An abundance of Citrus is also available. The Herbalness from the nose carries over to the taste, along with the Dried Fruits of Apricot, Fig, And Plum. Finish: A very nice Medium length run of Sweet Agave runs with a Lingering Spice of Cinnamon and Baking Spices.
