Lot: MAD-141. On the nose, it's slightly smoky with some earthiness, vegetal notes, juicy fruit gum, mango, and pineapple. Initially, the taste is roasted agave/vegetal and peppery, then transforms into a delicious tropical fruit explosion with mangos, papaya, pineapple, and lots of juicy fruit gum, which slowly fades to a chalky finish with a hint of cinnamon. I love this.

Bright, zesty, floral, and aromatic, with fruity and some mineral notes.
