Centinela Origen
Reposado Tequila

Category: Reposado Tequila

Date Tasted:
Country: Mexico
Alcohol: 40%
Clear light gold color. Aromas and flavors of chocolate cereal, caramel with melted butter, corn bread , golden pie crust, butterscotch, and cold brew with a thick, off-dry medium body and a graceful, brisk finish that presents notes of cocoa nibs, chocolate cover cherries, lime cream, melon, and salted peanuts. Somehow subtle and flavorful at the same time; does a nice job of showcasing light, delicate flavors and not letting them get lost in the mix.
