Aztecali Reposado * Tasted March 2012 * Riedel Tequila Glass
Appearance: medium straw - slow tears
Aroma: sweet agave with hints of oak and citrus
Initial Taste: agave and orange
Spirit Body: sweet bread and roasted nuts
Finish / Aftertaste: medium heat chocolate finish, citrus and 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. Aztecali is a great example of modern Mezcal.
