Nice gentian and orange on the nose, and a good balance of sweetness. Quite a good aperitivo liqueur, absolutely superior to the likes of aperol or god forbid mionetto.
Interesting idea, perhaps i should try it in a Port of Spain cocktail once i get my hands on some good orgeat. And yes, do agree that its inferior in a lot of ways to ango, but i have tried it in a Manhattan once and it wasnt half bad at all.
It is a pain in the arse to get ahold of this tequila but for all the good reasons: clean, balanced agave sweetness along with a healthy helping of the barrel, some spice notes too. Their 2024 winter repo blend is also remarkable, leaning more into the lactic profile.
Way better than the ubiquitous aperol spritz or whatever other mediocre stuff most bars use these days, especially if you make it with vermouth amaro
