TASTING NOTE
Bright, crystal clear. The aromatics are very intense, giving aromas of agave, smoke, and grass with supporting notes of citrus zest, earth, and citrus. The palate echoes the nose delivering an agave-driven core with supporting flavors of smoke, sea salt, and lime. The finish is dry. Medium-bodied and favorably balanced with a vibrant texture.
