Sanzekan Mezcales
Sanzekan is a collective of mezcaleros from the municipalities of Chilapa de Álvarez, Zitlala, Ahuacuotzingo and Tixtla. These municipalities are located in the central low mountain region of the state of Guerrero. Each of the mezcals is bottled, respecting the work done by each mezcal master, which is why each bottle bears the name and signature of the mezcal master, the town of origin, harvest and the batch number.
The brand and collective are committed to the rational and sustainable management of natural resources. They have various programs that allow them to guarantee the sustainable use: a maguey reforestation program (1.5 million seedlings annually), soil conservation and water retention works, the bagasse resulting from the production of mezcal is used as fertilizer in the fields.

Review #154: The nose has cantaloupe, leather, milk chocolate, wood, sharpie, and a little floral.
The palate has lots fruit up front, canteloupe, honeydew, mango skin, pineapple juice, coffee, creamy milk chocolate, leather, green banana, old wood, and a bit of dry herbs on the finish.
Great papalote from guerrero, no surprise there. Really nice mix of soft fruit notes with the savory ones alongside it. The transition from the fruits to the leather and chocolate are awesome and lends a lot of complexity to it.
