Pure agave frosting at first, then honey, pepper, big fruit notes like papaya, lime, a bit of plum. I’m amazed at just how much character this has in the bump from 40%->50% ABV. The complexity is impressive, the mouth feel is just plain luscious and this is a treat - from tip to tail.
Aromas and flavors of yeasty cookie dough, toasted meringue, spiced yams, and fleur de sel and olive brine. A robust and spicy blanco with inviting layers of flavor and a long warming finish.

House Review
Nose:
Sweet, creamy, plenty of pepper on the nose. No ethanol - surprising for the proof, and I’m here for it. Bit of lime, sorbet/sherbert fruit/sweet notes. Mmm.
Taste:
Wowzers - on the palate this is really something. Pure agave frosting at first, then honey, pepper, big fruit notes like papaya, lime, a bit of plum. Rich, viscous mouthfeel. Complex and lovely.
Finish:
Long finish, ripe with agave character, toasted sesame, rainwater, cream and pepper.
Overall:
I’m amazed at just how much character this has in the bump from 40%->50% ABV. The complexity is impressive, the mouth feel is just plain luscious and this is a treat - from tip to tail.
