Neat. Nose is honey, vanila, anise, agave. Taste starts with rich, sweet, honeyed cedar, vanilla, roasted agave, lots of herbs, predominately anise, and cocoa. Flavors stick around a bit then turn to tart, sweet, bitter saccharine. Moderate mouthfeel. Overall sweet, herbal, and bitter.. It's a sipper more than a shooter. Above average at this price class and cool bottle

I'm very new to tequila so take my opinion with a grain of salt. I am a bourbon drinker and the bourbon barrel influence does come through with vanilla and bright oaky notes. The main body of the taste is sweet agave with a hint of mint in the background. Great stuff for the price.
Nose: it’s more faint than the reposado , faint pepper and faint vanilla. I got orange peel on the first sniff but not again after that Taste: dark chocolate, pepper, vanilla, caramel... it exploded it my mouth
Neat - Has a sweet and spiced flavor. Goes well with a good cigar after dinner.
