Smokey, Fruity and Floral Smells and tastes like dark smoke. Once you get acclimated to the smoke you can taste bright citrus, light flowers and yellow bell peppers. It isn't entirely unpleasant, in fact there is some good stuff there. I must just hate mezcal, the smoke is too much for me. I got this as a gift, so I can't say whether it was worth it. It tastes okay, but there are many other spirits I'd rather spend my liver on.
