Mezcal Derrumbes San Luis Potosí

Blue cheese and green peppers on the nose. Totally unique.

Quite vegetal. Lots of jalepeno.

The more I drink this, the more I am starting to not like it that much.

Mild salinity, little bit of slate almost like a wet concrete. Nice piney aromas, undertones of leather

The nose very “green” akin to jalapeno/poblano peppers with undertones of cheese…perhaps a touch of onions in there as well. Basically, it smells like jalapeno poppers in a glass. Taste is more of the same with a pepper spice kick. The green pepper flavors cling to your palate forever. I am literally still tasting it 30 minutes later. Overall, a solid and distinctive mezcal that pushes a lot of great buttons and is an absolute bargain. I just wish that it had a higher ABV which I venture would bring out more depth. I recently had a taste of a Mezonte Jalisco Raicilla that shared a lot of these flavors with tons of extra depth and complexity and blew my mind.
