Aroma: A pleasant nose of agave and light honey/vanilla.
Initial Taste: A really nice and interesting sweetness. There's a good agave flavor mixed with a vanilla bean essence. Very interesting and tasty.
Body: A fairly thin body that lacks the complexity that I might expect. The mix of the initial taste is there, but the body is a bit thin and the oak and spice aren't there as much as I might expect.
Finish: The wood becomes more prominent in this medium length linger with some spice and anise. It's a medium-short finish that goes down very easily...almost too much so.
Fortaleza is just a flat out quality brand. One thing that makes me like it so much is that is generally has a unique profile and produces flavors that you don't often find balanced as well in other juices.

Ken's Cozy Cote Rotie's and some fine tequila's (Casa KT): Very complex nose of sweet agave, touch of mint, and some vanilla on the nose. Clean and smooth finish that goes down so easily

Smooth notes on the nose. Huge complexity on the biting attack, succulent mouthfeel, very sip-able.
