Pierde Almas Tobaziche

Mar 13, 2019

Strangely different. Somewhat muted nose of wet dirt and pine. Taste is heavy on the mulch… or at least tastes like mulch smells. No burn on finish… extremely different/interesting mezcal

Koch Espadin Ancestral (Olla de Barro)

Mar 4, 2019

For an espadin, this is fantastic. Smooth, earthy, ever so light bite. Almost creamy. Solid price ($80), wish this was readily available in Texas.

Hacienda de Chihuahua Plata

Agree with the other review. Tastes like a muted tequila. Not much of a sotol in my opinion. Average

Mezcalosfera Espadin/​Jabali – Victor Ramos

Feb 27, 2019

Definitely taste the espadin base. If it were $30 less a bottle, it might be my go to mezcal. Enjoyable

Caballito Cerrero Chato

Feb 26, 2019

Not really mezcal based on its production method, but extremely different and interesting. Strange flavors of bubblegum up front, followed by cotton candy and a non existent finish. 3.5/5

Ánimas Papalometl

A little nail polish/varnish on nose. Def. an herbal, chartreuse-like mid palate with a sweet, burning finish. Solid, but glad I bought the 8 oz bottle instead of a 750ml

Lalocura Tepeztate

Feb 23, 2019

A little hot but other than that, its breathtaking. Up there with the best Teps ive had. Wish we had this in Texas

Ánimas Espadin

Funky for an espadin. Smell is on point, but hated the finish. Mediocre, strange

Real Minero Largo, Espadin, Coyota, Becuela, Tobala

Feb 8, 2019

Absolutely cannot believe this is 54%. The other reviews are correct, this is fantastic. Supplants Barril/Cuishe ensamble as the best ensamble from RM. Palate is smooth and earthy, but the finish is the star of the show here. A myriad of skittles flavor along with some citrus and funk to round it out.

A top 5 mezcal for me

Koch Arroqueno Ancestral (Olla de Barro)

Jan 31, 2019

Shockingly good. Outstanding for the price, even

Real Minero Tripon

Jan 27, 2019

Sweet, very little smoke. Smells like a nice blanco tequila. No long finish, no burn. Balanced, extremely enjoyable

Del Maguey San Luis del Rio Azul

Jan 27, 2019

Interesting to have blue agave made in the traditional mezcal style

Real Minero Arroqueño

Jan 22, 2019

2013 vintage

Extremely complex

Long awesome finish

Buy a case

Tosba Tepextate

Jan 22, 2019

4.5/5 really. Earthy, garden fresh nose. Palate is full of produce section veggies, minerality, and oil. Finish is long with a decent alcohol burn. A little too “veggie” for my tastes, but still a well-crafted mezcal

Koch Espadin Artesanal

Jan 22, 2019

Lotta veggies. Bell peppers, tomatillo, and slight jalapeno. Not much smoke. Solid espadin, great for the price. Finish is short and without any burn. Pleasant

Mezcalero No. 20

Jan 22, 2019

Solid, not sure if exceptional. Gonna have to revisit. For now, 4/5

El Jolgorio Tobaziche

Jan 19, 2019

Whoah nelly! Balanced, tip toeing the line between sharp and sweet. Slight citrus, tons of earthiness… wonderful

Del Maguey San Pablo Ameyaltepec

Jan 16, 2019

Cream and flowers. This mezcal would be in my top 5 of all time of it werent for a strange, mid-palate taste i cant put my finger on. More of a 4.5/5

Madre Espadin – Cuishe

Jan 16, 2019

No burn or bite. Incredibly smooth. The addition of the Cuishe (30%) takes this Espadin heavy mezcal to a deeper, sweeter level. Wisps of smoke throughout and a finish that lingers almost the perfect amount. Wish this was available in Texas… this would be a fantastic everyday sipper.

EDIT: after sitting for a while, there is a strange hardcore mint flavor that comes through that i dont care for. Overall, still good, but def. a little different

Vago Ensamble en Barro

Jan 11, 2019

Arroqueno, Coyote, Texpetate. 51.5% abv

Whoah. Only knock is on the slight bite from the higher abv. Otherwise… stellar
