Avión Reposado Tequila

Let sit for about 5 minutes. 👀: Very pale gold with a full body, flecks of sunlight; 👃: Older agave notes abound with spiciness coming out, your typical vegetal scents, warm baking spices; 👅: Sweet with apple spice and some vanilla on the front with more sugary sweetness on the back end, nice taste without too much harsh tastes; 🏁: Short linger so you can taste other liquor without too much cross-taste, very light on the tongue, great on its own.

A rich agave from Mexico aged for 6 months in oak barrels. It has an aromatic birth with notes of roasted agave, wood, earth, fruits, flowers, herbs & spices; while a rich life adds notes of cherry, peach, pear, caramel & vanilla; that led to a complex death of medium length with a touch of oak & rose petals.

Nose: Strong agave, apples and alcohol. Slight lemon and basil. Taste: pepper, oak and agave. Slight burn then builds into a strong leather and spice crescendo. Too much burn but a nice sweetness underlaying the flavor.

Lightly flavoured with sweet agave/tree fruit, smooth with a hint of peppery spice. Good but the light profile leaves me craving more. Similar but possibly more depth than Milagro Reposado. Not currently available in Ontario.

80 proof. Aged 6 months in ex bourbon barrels. Agave, ash, caramel, corn, charred oak, charred pineapple, molasses, animal crackers, vanilla, butter.

Has notes of char and vanilla and earth. Flavor has some hints of pear as well. Sweet and slightly burning. Very smooth and quite good.
