My Tasting Notes: The tequila is yellowish in color and has an intense earthy, floral,
and spice aromas.  Once you get past the intensity of the nose, you can smell mild
notes of fruit, vanilla, and smoke.  On the tip of the tongue the tequila is mellow and
soft but yet has a moderate agave taste.  While the tequila has a low bitterness, it is
actually fairly sweet.  The flavor has intense agave, earth, and floral attributes which
are followed by moderate spice and fruit.  Lastly, there are mild flavors of smoke
accents.  The tequilas finish is a medium duration of flavor followed by a tingling, hot
alcohol feeling.



Info on the Back of the Bottle: "Corazon de Agave Tequila is produced in the
heart of the blue agave growing area of Mexico, known as "The Highlands."  The family
that creates this exceptional tequila has been growing blue agave more than three
generations.  Corazon is made by the traditional method, using 100% blue agave,
distilled twice in pot stills and aged in oak barrels.  Corazon de Agave Tequila is estate
grown, distilled, and hand bottled."



Other Info: "For Tequila lovers, there is something new to get passionate
about...Tequila Corazón de Agave. Corazón de Agave, literally "heart of agave", is the
exotic new entry in the ultra premium 100% blue agave tequila market.

Tequila Corazón de Agave is created from 100% blue agave, grown in the rich, red soil
of the highlands of Arandas, Jalisco, Mexico. The agave grown in this region is
considered to be the largest and sweetest of all agave plants, taking between 8-12
years to mature to their full flavor. For this reason, Corazón de Agave is produced from
only these select plants. Corazón de Agave is estate grown, cultivated, distilled, aged
to perfection in new charred oak barrels and hand bottled at Destiladora San Nicolas
Estate in Mexico.  

Corazón de Agave Reposado is aged in new Canadian oak barrels for up to one year,
resulting in a softness and depth previously found only in fine aged cognac and single
malt scotch." -
