Del Maguey Chichicapa Mezcal
Mezcal Joven — Oaxaca, Mexico
Reviewed May 31, 2023 (edited June 8, 2023)Very complex and tasty mezcal. A nice grapefruit, specks of floral notes, roasted pineapple sweetness that then turns into a mesquite/juniper wood notes. Mango skin, clay, chili pepper and wood smoke follow near the end. The finish is somewhat medium length, with a solid amount of minerality and smokiness.73.0 USD per Bottle -
El Destilador Clásico Blanco Tequila
Tequila Blanco — Mexico
Reviewed May 31, 2023 (edited June 8, 2023)Solid tequila for the price. You get the standard citrus and herbal agave flavors your looking for in tequila. The finish is a little hot but it’s not something I’d consider a shot tequila, Definitely a good mixer. Highly recommended for Paloma or margarita -
Corralejo 1821 Extra Añejo Tequila
Tequila Extra Añejo — Guanajuato, Mexico
Reviewed May 29, 2023 (edited June 8, 2023)A nice oakiness in the beginning, dashes of vanilla, hay, very light notes of caramel before a bit of agave herbality, then back to the savory, clean and smooth flavor. The finish is short and smooth as can be with a dash of baking spice. A solid extra anejo.130.0 USD per Bottle -
Super weird one here. Don’t see this agave a lot around liquor stores. Sweet, floral in the beginning which quickly turns to some real strange flavors. Grapefruit, herbality, a dark cocoa, hints of dark espresso, maybe even some wasabi? The finish is relatively short, slightly sweet, low almost negligible amounts of smoke (not a bad thing), lacking minerality and is heavy on the cocoa. is this an everyday drinker like an espadin? I probably couldn’t, but what I will say is it’s a super strange mezcal that I can say I enjoyed trying at least once!43.0 USD per BottleSpec's Wines, Spirits & Finer Foods
