Abasolo Ancestral Corn Whisky

Nose is of agave, butterscotch, and corn-heavy white dog. Musty! A honeyed light smokiness comes through later. Initial taste is a bit flat, sweet, surprisingly no burn. Crescendoes to what I can only describe as a rich, spiced pork braise with heavy cocoa powder flavors. Surprisingly long finish. A touch of apple on the end. Not for everyone but I like it!

Nose: agave, mezcal, mantequilla quemada. Taste: caramelo, spicy al final, un poco de miel. Y un final amargo. Interesante y mas de lo que esperas para 2 años.

It tastes like tequila.

This whisky is a confusing mess. On the nose is corn, grain, and tequila and on the palate it tasted like a blend of bourbon, Irish whiskey, and agave. Tasted neat it's rough around the edges. On the rocks, though, the floral sweetness came together. This wasn't my favorite, but if you're looking for something sweet to enjoy over ice give this a try. My hunch is this would make one hell of a cocktail.

Faint corn and agave on the nose. Sweet butter, masa, and blanco tequila. Brief tequila finish.

sweet, but in a pleasant way. Kind of tastes like a mix between a floral mezcal and an irish whiskey, but i may be imagining that.

Exceptionally unique! The nose is dominate by an aroma in unfamiliar with, but I’ll try to describe it as roasted sweet corn with movie theatre butter and salted caramel. On the palate it’s much more subdued with corn/agave sweetness rising over soft caramel and vanilla. Hints of banana and tropical fruits poke through on occasion. The finish is a quick decrescendo that fails to leave a lasting impression.
