Distilled by Tio Rey, this ensemble en barre is a blend of 67% Espadin agave and 33% Tepezete agave. It is bottled at a generous 48.5% ABV. Let's see how it is.
Honey, light confectioners sugar. Light brine. Some faint earth. That fun cashew note is back. Pepper. Interesting but not for me I don’t think. The finish is a bit dry, and earthy.
Soft, complex, almost Scotch-like, the sweet wood smoke and melon-dominated aroma of this mezcal doesn't quite prepare you for its all-out smoked-chili and medicinal assault on the palate.
Floral, grassy, green, herbal, umami aromas and flavors of candied flowers, fruity pebbles, lemon verbena, candied ginger, and bbq. A lively Mezcal with nice notes of sweet and savory on the palate.
