Light gold color. Aromas and flavors of smoked honey ham, cherry and apple wood smoker, bbq brisket bark, and smoked pecans with a satiny, bright, dry medium body and a short-to-medium finish with impressions of applewood smoked bacon, maple syrup, and singed orange peel.

About

Flavored Tequila

Given that flavored vodka has been so popular, it should come as no surprise that flavored tequilas are now appearing on the market. Flavors include orange, pepper and of course, lime for your very own margarita. Quality on the whole is average as some of these are a bit sweet, but pepper tequilas display a nice spiciness, whether you use them for cocktails or a shot.
