Nose – Musty and sweet; old wood, damp attic, cinnamon rolls, caramels, and shoe polish.
Palate – Very confectionary; baked goods. Tiramisu, butterscotch, dulce de leche. And a funky, woody component from the barrels is in there as well; oak, cashews, menma (bamboo garnish in ramen).
Finish – Sweet and buttery; buttermilk donuts, caramels. With some faint and subdued wood; shiitake mushrooms.
Good and flavorful. It’s uncommon to find a respectable Mezcal that wants to have fun with itself and offer a barrel aged spirit. Well done for what it is!

Palate – One of the better anejo mezcal expressions that I’ve tried. The barrel notes are in sync with the roasted agave flavors. I dig it!
