The rye adds a piquant perfume, but still very much agave forward on the nose. Upon tasting, agave sweetness greets the tongue with a smooth and nigh creamy mouthfeel. Very much in line with a well aged tequila. After half a minute, the rye spice comes through, adding a festive and lively punch to the tequila spirit. A long finish that ends on a dry and somewhat tannic note. A total success in a novel barrel aging. Highly recommended.
