Intro:
This is another release of Vago Ensamble en Barro, this time using 57% Espadin and 43% Mexicano magueys. I've been a big fan of past Ensambles from Tio, so I'm very much looking forward to this one as well. This is the October 2018 batch, for the curious. Lets dive in.
-
Nose:
Melon, cream cheese, light salt. Some pepper. Mostly sweet and fruity.
-
Taste:
Medium mouth feel. No heat. Honey, apples, pears, cream cheese. Light vegetation, very little. Some pepper. Delightfully creamy.
-
Finish:
Pepper, light ash, honey, bell pepper and cream cheese. Love it.
-
Overall:
Phenomenal stuff. Sweet and fruity on the nose, ashy and peppery, and vegetable-y on the finish. Great transition. Surprising smokiness.
