Diestro Madrecuixe has aromas of wet earth and fresh mud, however the finish on the palate is completely floral.

It came out a bit hot when I first opened the bottle, but eventually settled into something totally unique and utterly delightful. It is the lightest, sweetest, greenest mezcal I’ve had. Most madrecuixes I’ve had have a mineral dryness, but this is just light and sweet and open, while still being full of flavor. The overwhelming flavor is green vegetables, mostly sweet green pepper, but the impression is a cool mountain stream on a sunny day. I just finished my bottle and lament its absence as nothing else on my shelf tastes like it. I had no idea it would open up into this when I first opened the bottle.
You can visit the Diestro/Siniestro offices in Mexico City to do a tasting and buy bottles.
