Distilled by the great Aquilano Garcia using agave Karwinskii and a copper still, this batch of Cuixe is bottled by Vago (Lot A-04-C-20).
Bright, potent, powerful. Honey, floral notes like jasmine and lavender. Wild peppers and cedar. Acidic and bright.
Rests heavy on the palate, complex with plenty going on. Slate, bell pepper, rainwater and bright fruit like apples, pears, kiwi. Creamy on the back palate, light on smoke, a bit of cedar.
Long finish that leans meaty, funky, savory and terroir driven.
Delightful. Aquilino, you produced some elegant batches.
