Mezonte Jalisco

Mezcal Joven — Jalisco, Mexico, Mexico

Reviewed August 5, 2019 (edited March 15, 2020)
5.0
5.0 out of 5 stars
Batch 1, 2018 by Santos Juarez. Definitely got the funk. Aromas of cheese (blue cheese mixed with cream cheese), strawberries, chalk, play-doh, barnyard aromas, very earthy yet herbal like a good rooibos tea, grilled brocollini, grapefruit pith, and smoldering earth notes, amongst other stuff I can’t quite put my finger on. Taste is very green upfront with loads of roasted agave and tropical notes like papaya and mango along with butter toffee which goes into a beautiful mineral note like wet cement which lasts through the long smoky finish with more roasted agave and blueberries peeking through. This is a wondrous raicilla and one of the best agave spirits I have ever had the pleasure of tasting. So much going on.

    @dubz480 Haha, thanks! I am completely enamored with this spirit and am far, far down the rabbit hole. Many more bottles to open, enjoy, and let breathe and develop.
