Corazón Buffalo Trace Reposado Tequila

The youngest of the aged tequilas, this spirit spent 10.5 months in Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels, and the results are quite impressive, starting with a novel aroma. Peppered oak, with just a hint of more typical agave scents. The flavor is sweet at first, with agave fruitiness growing to hot white pepper. After awhile the oak returns with just a hint of vanilla and cinnamon. It offers a long and briny finish, with just a hint of smoke. This is almost like infused tequila, with the bourbon trappings framing the blanco very nicely. (80 proof)
