Nose

Soft notes of campfire and piney minerals are gentle. 

Taste

The flavors are equally soft as the aromas, with velvety edges full of green herbs, cool minerals, and earthy pineapple husk. A gentle smoke permeates each sip, not overpowering the vegetal flavors, but complementing them. 

Method/Background 

Agaves are cooked in an in-ground earthen oven, tahona crushed, naturally fermented in wooden tanks, and double distilled in small copper pot stills.
