An espadin that has been sweetened, Del Maguey Crema is a solid choice for cocktails, allowing you to get some of the mezcal smoke and sweetness of the agave syrup without having to add simple syrup or sugar.
The nose features smoke and citrus in equal measures. The palate is quite sweet and rich, but there is some clay with a bit of heat. The finish brings on the sweetness and a bit of earthiness.
This won't blow you away, but for those that are intimidated by mezcal or think it's too smokey or has too much heat, this is a good starting point (although I think Del Maguey Chichicapa is an even better starting point).
Sweet and fruity nose of mint, agave nectar, spruce, green herbs and earth. Thick and sweet on account of the agave syrup, the sugar and sugary agave masking most of what additional flavors there might otherwise be. I do get some raisin and a hint of black pepper, but that’s about it. Too sweet for a sipper, but this should make a fine cocktail.
