Review and Tasting


Sampled on 10/11/2016

Appearance:

Crystal clear.

Aroma:

Pungent tangerine and naval orange zest with some zesty lemon. White pepper spice and faint tequila.

Taste:

Slightly sweet syrupy mouth feel quickly dries with a burst of zesty citrus and spicy tequila to become perfectly balanced and bitter orange.

Aftertaste:

Dry orange zesty finish with lingering tequila spice.

Overall:

A beautifully balanced triple sec-styled orange liqueur with attractive tequila notes.
