Maguey Melate Tepextate Adela Del Carmen Cruz Antonio
Mezcal Joven — Mexico
Reviewed May 13, 2022 (edited August 12, 2022)Second tasting I like this as much as Reina’s expression. This is more subtle with the fruit notes but less dry. Also minerality takes center stage here. -
Maguey Melate Madre Cuishe Adela Del Carmen Cruz Antonio
Mezcal Joven — Mexico
Reviewed April 30, 2022Good but not distinguishable from an Espadin on first tasting -
Maguey Melate Tobala w/ Apples Maria Alicia Alva Sanchez
Mezcal Añejo — Mexico
Reviewed April 29, 2022Delicious and distinctive compared to the dozen mezcals I’ve tried but this spirit type is so new to my palate that I struggle to say how. Smoke, copper coin, and a tart citrus note dominate the mid palate, with some subtle sweetness in the finish. Copper coin lingers throughout. Astringent but not in an unpleasant way -
Tried this at ritz carlton hotel bar philly. Nice, comparable to glenallachie 10 yr cask strength batch 5 but less rich in viscosity and perhaps less complex in flavor. Both drams are like dark fruit salads. Not too orange. Dates, plums, betties. Better than macallan 18 in flavor but this does lack in viscosity very thin mouthfeel and not a long finish
