Apparently presents are bought by El Niñito Dios or Santa Clos in Mexican. I usually don't get any these days as I'm too old but via a round trip via Australia Santa Clos aka @cascode was very kind to post me samples of the finest Del Magueys to satisfy my Mezcal curiosity. Weirdly our postal systems seemed in sync as I got the package the same day he got mine! This drop is a good one. Much different to the others I've had to date, very smoked woody, sweet and vegetal but lighter. The first mezcal I had the ChiChicapa was more oily which I quite liked and think I prefer. For more comprehensive notes see cascodes great review. Thanks Santa Clos!

@PBMichiganWolverine It wasn't that I didn't enjoy it, more that it didn't seem to be the same profiles as the other 3 so didn't enjoy it as much. San Luis del Rio, may have been towards end of bottle also
@Soba45 which was the one that you didn’t enjoy ?
@PBMichiganWolverine Yes 3 out of the 4 so far I've really enjoyed.
Havent tried this one , but generally can’t go wrong with a Del Maguey
