Lot: MAD-141 On the nose it's slightly smoky with a bit of earthiness, vegetal, juicy fruit gum, mango, and pineapple. Initially the taste is roasted agave/vegetal and peppery then morphs into delicious tropical fruit bomb with mangos, papaya, pineapple, lots of juicy fruit gum that slowly fades away to a chalky finish with a touch of cinnamon. I love this.
Very herbal with some sweetness as well as bitterness and light smoke. 93
Bright zesty floral and aromatic, fruity and some mineral notes
great balance of vegetal, mineral flavors, then fading to dust
Same style and price bracket, best rated first.
