Tequila Reposado, Amatitena

Once you get through the smoke there are some nice aromas. Agave and raisin come through. The taste also leads with smoke but it is a little less consuming than on the nose. I get cooked agave, oak, raisin and pepper.

There are gentle smoky agave notes in the initial aroma that dissipate pretty quickly, giving way to orange zest and cinnamon. It continues its transition with soft vanilla tones, a hint of anise and background minerals.
