    “Batch:L750ZBH0001 54%ABV  Visual: Great viscosity. Clear with clear medium edge.  Initial Nasal Impact: Warming. Aroma: Cooked agave, citrus, cinnamon, white pepper, anise, limestone. Fresh clean agave. Mouthfeel: Buttery with sufficient alcohol. Wow, this is 54%ABV? Does not drink like a high proof. Flavor: The citrus explodes. Grapefruit and especially lime, mineral, anise, cooked agave, slight herbal notes. Finish: Long with the anise, mineral and lime notes carrying throughout with plenty of cooked agave. Incredible balance and flavor for the price point. Take the price out and this is still an amazing high proof blanco. Consider the price (39.99 at TW) this is a must buy high proof. ”
