Nose is pleasant and complex. I get ripe apple and stone fruit, with a hint of light flowers, maybe carnation or baby’s breath. The palate has dried fruit and a hint of tobacco. Batch JALU1122.

On the nose I get some earthy clay notes, light-colored fruit and a hint of black pepper and spice. The palate is a mix of sweet and sour primarily with notes of red berries. A warm finish finish rounds out a pleasant example of the influence clay can have on Mezcal. Batch JAEN1122.

Bright & green smell. Some chalkiness and a very slight rotten fruit smell. Clean taste. Fruit, sweet, some tanginess with the smoke well integrated. Good and nothing really wrong….just doesn’t jump out at me. 3.75 stars.

Terrible. Nope.

Creamy, funky. Like a funky cream cheese frosting. Love!

Nope. Too strong and just boozy for me.

LOVED this, fruit forward, so easy to sip!

Loved the fullness of this from the mole

New line possibly: 51% D. Wheeleri and 49% A. Schrevei, Lot 01 Aug. 21. Lovely nose, dusty and sharp but yet immensely deep and intriguing with smoky mint, dark chocolate and sage, light musk.
Flavours are equally sharp and distinct, yet balanced with a sweetness of prickly pear and guava, limestone, chalk, cypress. Full bodied, integrated alcohol. One of the very best bottles out there. Reminds me of Clandé yellow, but perhaps even a tad richer.

very smoothe, fruity; really opens up to become a great sipping mezcal

2021. One of the best Espadin I’ve ever enjoyed. Nice a smoothe. Soft and lovely.

Been a long time but I enjoyed this. Quite full and meaty. Natural flavors agave been added 🙁
