Intro:
Distilled by Romulo Sanchez Parada in the village of Candelaria Yegole, this ambitious ensamble blends Mexicano, Cuishe, Tepeztate and Coyote and makes use of a double run on copper stills. Produced in 2019 - Batch D5002-4M.
-
Nose:
Bright on the nose! So much fruit, clay, a bit of latex, sweet buttercream, cotton candy and more. Crisp, fruity, effervescent - a hint of rain on the horizon.
-
Taste:
Sweet, crisp, acidic and spritely. There's a great combination of earth, soil, clay, crisp fruits and that iconic Tep note. A bit ashy on the back palate, great pepper character keeps things well balanced.
-
Finish:
Long finish, more earthy and peppery here than the fruity explosion of the nose, but it balances really nicely and yields quite a bit of complexity.
-
Overall:
Overall, I really love this. Sweet, but not too sweet. Fruity, but not too fruity. Savory and zesty - but again not too much. The smoke is just right, and this is an Ensamble to remember.
