Oct 5, 2022

Real Minero Espadin

Batch RME-10 2018
Nose: clay and sweet cooked agave, jalapeno, sugarcane, vanilla, bourbon

Palate: creamy sweet into tingly prickly agave notes, vanilla, and chili pepper

Finish: juicy tropical fruits, citrus zest, tingly effervence kinda carries from the palate, light clay notes follow all the way through.

Overall not crazy complex but super well balanced and integrated experience. Could crush this bottle.

Vago Mexicano – Hijos de Aquilino Garcia

Aug 18, 2022

Lot A 7 M 20
Nose: nice undertone of sweet fruits, with an upper end of citrus rinds and some salinity, bright green notes, and weird but like almost broken in catchers mitt kinda leathery notes.

Palate: nice prickly sweet agave note up front, some waxiness, sour tropica fruit notes followed by maybe smoky pear almost?

Finish: nice and mellow peppery tingle black pepper and a little chile with some very subtle smoke that builds upon itself , little but of a kind of earthy industrial note in their too welcome light funk nothing off putting. Finish wins me over on this. Great stuff.

Lot apaj003

Nose: lactose in the best way, like a cheese cake with berries, some citrus blended in there, buttery

Palate: soft, subtle citrus rind, agave, butter

Finish: butter transitions to the finish, with some tingly spice, very little smoke, and a more bitter lime peel note

Not overly complex but a fantastic bottle for cocktails or an intro to mezcal for those who only associate the spirit with smoke.

La Luna Chino

Aug 11, 2022

Lot 40 97.02 proof

Nose: citrus, that nice lemonade quality mentioned by others, nice grassy summery bright note, light salt, everything really well blended in one pleasant experience

Palate: fruity, citrus, nice viscosity, almost a lemon berry ice box pie, seamless transition from the nose

Finish: switches into pleasant smoke, lingering notes from the palate but brought down into the earthen range which gives it some nice depth. Great bottle! Shoutout to zacks channel for the recommendation
