Todays mezcal review is a Tobala-Tobasiche ensamble from Tio Pedro. Distilled on clay after a fermentation in pine tubs, this bottling was produced from hand crushed pinyas. The ensamble blend is 35% Tobala and 65% Tobasiche. Let's get to it.

  • This is sort of pungent for me, especially since it drinks like blue cheese and beef bouillon cubes in a way I don’t love. It’s good, certainly, but there is much other Tio I am chasing first.

House Review
  • Nose:

    Funky, meaty, cheesy. Garlic, beef stew, some cheese funk and sweetness. Super savory, almost a hint of balsamic. Whew.

  • Taste:

    Sweet on the palate with cream, beef bouillon and some nice pepper and garlic notes. Heat is very much in check .

  • Finish:

    Short, funky, pungent and meaty on the palate. The savory notes are joined by pepper, clay and a really powerful funk.

  • Overall:

    This is sort of pungent for me, especially since it drinks like blue cheese and beef bouillon cubes in a way I don’t love. It’s good, certainly, but there is much other Tio I am chasing first.
