X-FACTOR
The judges found this to be a serviceable Tequila but it lacks gusto.
TASTING NOTE
Brilliant, crystal clear. The aromatics are very intense, offering scents of agave, straw, and almonds with supporting notes of lime and pomelo. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering an agave-driven core with supporting flavors of melon, almonds, and grass. The finish is a bit flat. Medium-bodied and substantially balanced with a lean texture.
