643 reviewsHuge fan of Onofre and Tepextate mezcals but this is not the best representation of the plant unfortunately. Dark sour pepper notes with a hint of dry tobacco leaf. Surprised the Miahuatlán minerality is not coming through more. Lot OO-TPX-14.

The palate is sweet and warm with notes of smoked jalapeno cheese, leather, artificial cherry flavoring, and dried mint leaves. I really wanted to love this as I’m a big fan of Onofre’s mezcal. On paper, this seems like it should be a great Tep, but it just doesn’t quite do it for me. It’s not bad by any means, and maybe others will like it. It just falls a bit flat for me.
