El Tesoro de Don Felipe Platinum Tequila, NOM 1139. Crystal clear in color with very high, uniform legs. The first nose was deep earth with generous agave scents. A second nose revealed a smoky pine aroma. The initial taste was spicy with some bitterness. The body is light to medium light with the flavor of sweet root vegetables. I found the finish to be somewhat flat but with a nice openness. El Tesoro is quite smooth, absolutely no burn, but with a warm alcohol sensation throughout. I got a generous deal so I overrated the $. Top shelf. A-/A
