Comunidad
Comunidad is a brand from Hector Vasquez de Abarca, who ran production at Los Danzantes, and Ansley Coale, importer of mezcals and raicillas since 2004 and creator of the Mezcalero brand. They collaborated on Comunidad to find, bottle, and represent superb agave spirits with the intent of helping to preserve the society and culture from which they come. Society and culture create the depth that underlies these profound human achievements, but they are threatened by rapid commercialization.

A pleasant nose of cedar and saline minerality, with a bright bit of ripe strawberry as well. Nose fades into delicate wet leather and clay. The wet leather continues on into the palette where there’s a nice tone of more summer fruits juxtaposed by hardwoods like pecan and mesquite predominantly. This palette fades into a pleasant dry finish that reflects back to the salinity, with a pop of mint and tobacco on the tail end.
Might come across on the thin side text to some but overall delicious and crisp
