On the palate the sip maintains that clarity, with a lean texture and a pleasant savoriness that accompanies the dry finish. The warmth is present but moderate, the persistence stays on citrusy and earthy notes; it is perfect for fresh cocktails like the margarita, but also stands up to neat tasting or with a single ice cube. The 100 cl bottle is practical for those who use tequila for mixing or for small events, offering a balance useful to both the bartender and the curious consumer.
