  • Intro:

    Distilled on copper, Tomas Garcia Cruz produced this Madrecuixe for NETA in Miahuatlan through two runs of distillation after fermentation in cypress wood tanks.

  • Nose:

    Solid, well rounded nose. Cream cheese icing, faint cedar and hickory smoke, light citrus and a hint of papaya.

  • Taste:

    A faint pinprick of heat, before a wild bouquet unwraps. Lavender, honey, faint lemon zest leads while soft pepper, some orange peel, nutmeg and a dash of confectioners sugar follow up. Faintly smoky, a touch of light umami keep things interesting. Lovely minerality, with a hint of celery on the back palate.

  • Finish:

    Long finish, centers more around a bit of soil, minerality and a mild citrus.

  • Overall:

    Lovely and complex, this batch has so much going on. My first brush with Tomas and it won’t be my last.

  • Score:

    8
