House Review

Intro:
Distilled using a clay pot in Saint Catarina Mina, Felix Angeles Arellanes produced this Tobaziche for Maguey Melate. This is notably Lot 2 - though I've not yet tried Lot 1.
-
Nose:
Extremely fragrant. Lots of pepper, stanky agave, beef and garlic, ammonia, cashew and some soil. Bizarre but really complex
-
Taste:
Rich on the palate. Cassia, meaty and vegetal. Not crisp in the string bean way. This reminds me of cinnamon, beef broth, soil and garlic. Extremely savory.
-
Finish:
Short to medium finish. Bitter, earthy, meaty and savory
-
Overall:
This is someones cup of tea but I”m not wooed by it. It’s well made but the flavors don’t encapsulate some of the things I love most about Mezcal.
