Tasting Notes

While the clay pot distillation imparts a signature character, expect tasting notes for Siete Misterios Olla de Barro Espadín to include, often:

• Aromas: The nose typically presents a softer, more rounded smokiness than copper-distilled Espadín. You might detect notes of cooked agave sweetness, often with hints of earthy clay, subtle floral nuances, and perhaps a touch of tropical fruit or mild spice.
• Palate: The olla de barro distillation often yields a silky and approachable texture. The palate reveals a harmonious blend of sweet cooked agave, a gentle smoky minerality, and distinct earthy undertones derived from the clay. You might also find notes of ripe fruit, such as a pear or an apple, alongside delicate herbal or spice notes that add complexity.   
• Finish: The finish is typically smooth and lingering, with the unique earthy clay notes often persisting alongside a pleasant warmth and a subtle sweetness. The overall impression is one of refined elegance and a gentle invitation for another sip.
