Smoky aroma. The nose seems to pick up the mezcal side more than the tequila side. But agave is definitely present. Flavor is right in line. Heavy smoke. Light agave. Light sweetness. Some vanilla. But quite a burn on the finish that lasts a while. Heavy vanilla on the second sip. Quite delicious

Some earthy pepper at first that evolves into more common blue agave and lime notes, with hints of espadin lime peel. The finish has some subtle smokiness and lasts a medium duration. A good stepping stone towards mezcal.
Agave with a smoky character, crafted from blue weber agave, alongside mezcal derived from espadin agave.
Very smooth; I was expecting some smoky flavor, but it's definitely a keeper.
Not as smoky as typical mezcal, very smooth.
doesn't measure up to Casamigos or Vida
