1980s Jose Cuervo La Rojeña Blanco

Colour: White.

Nose: Soft and a tad rose-y at first, with also whiffs of geranium flowers, perhaps a touch of quality cologne, and then a mellow earthiness that goes well with it. ...rather nice…

Mouth: Good presence, with a wee saltiness right from the start, notes of roots , agave, and much less softness then on the nose. A pretty fair palate that goes a bit towards good artisanal mezcal.

Finish: Medium, with some cinchona, lime, ginger beer, and that peppery saltiness.
