This is peculiar. It presents tequila characteristics alongside sweet dessert corn flavors, cocoa, popcorn, and toasted bread pudding, with very subtle tropical fruits. Then, rye notes quickly dominate with a strong, bitter finish and chemical undertones. Perhaps European oak wouldn't pair as well with tequila.
