It started out very well indeed - a first visit to @simplicity_sandwiches, Pixar back to its imperious heights with Coco, a great-as-always dinner at @sitkarestaurant, and a return visit to @coleylumpur after a couple of months. Very impressed by the cinnamon whisky & soy milk (& cincau!), which was followed up by this fascinating Ocho tequila flight (RM70). Personal thoughts on each as follows:
.
.
Blanco - pepper and spice nose. Bit like spiced rum, reminiscent of the time I dawdled at the Sailor Jerry booth at Laneway and backed out on getting a free tattoo. Initial jamminess at first sip that dissolves into a spicy aftertaste. Nice body. .
.
Curado - less of an aroma to it. But very syrupy with a much more subdued sweetness. Lovely spicy notes. Sweet aftertaste that slowly mellows out into a smouldering hint of a fire. .
.
Reposado - even milder nose. Very lovely fieriness from the very first note without burning. Coats the throat with heat though. Deep and rich. Almost like molten fire. .
.
Anejo - slightly peppery nose. Sticky sweet with much less of a burn than reposado. A nice tingly spiciness by this point. Definitely sweeter than the reposado though. Bit of a medicinal aftertaste though which I could do without. .
.
All in all, that's some fine sipping tequila right there. Go and check it out yourself. .
