X-FACTOR

The judges had a hard time identifying specific flavors or finding true Tequila characteristics.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, crystal clear. The nose is subtle, offering scents of cilantro, cucumber, spice, and jalapeño with supporting notes of green bell pepper. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering a spicy chili-driven core with flavors akin to green chili, tomatillo, red bell pepper, and cucumber. The finish is hot. Light-bodied and out of balance with a lean texture.
