Don Antonio Aguilar Reposado * Tasted March 2012 * Riedel Tequila Glass
Appearance: medium straw - slow tears
Aroma: agave and oak, berries with light grass
Initial Taste: sweet agave
Spirit Body: agave, vanilla and oak
Finish / Aftertaste: heated finish, woody mint aftertaste
This Mezcal is similar to Tequila and produced with more modern production methods with Blue Agave from Zacatecas. This is not what you would expect from typical Mezcals and does not exhibit smokey characteristics due to cooking the Agave above ground.
