Bottle pour at Superstition DTPHX, pours a clear dark reddish mahogany. Aroma is full of tequila barrels, prickly pear, and honey nectar. Flavour is moderately sweet, with a nice blend of prickly pear and tequila barrels, though the barrel heat is fairly restrained. I prefer the tequila to the cognac on this. Excellent.
