On the nose: agave. It tastes surprisingly like bread with subtle fruit undertones and lingering alcohol. It has an odd savory and viscous quality. It's smooth at first, but develops some spice. The finish is predominantly rubbing alcohol. The bread and agave combine for an unpleasantly rancid flavor. It lacks the sweetness I'd expect from a brandy or the refreshing qualities of a white wine (perhaps partly due to being served warm). Disturbingly similar to Balvenie 21 Portwood.
