I'm a whiskey enthusiast, but I could definitely enjoy this! It has a smoky aroma and taste, initially sweet, then leading to a subdued dryness and oak notes at the end. I've tried a young mezcal before, but I much prefer the complexity imparted by barrel aging.

Spicy, smoky, and floral. It reminds me a bit of a scotch due to the smokiness and sweetness.
Smooth, with a subtle smokiness that is intriguing without being overwhelming.
A very smoky smell and flavor. I wouldn't sip it straight, but it might work in a smoky margarita.
Too much wood.
