Tasting Notes
- Nose –Rich aromas of roast agave, oceanic salt spray, with notes of lactic fermentation.
- Taste –This ensamble is like the bass section of the orchestra. It opens with a rumbling timpani and then bursts of mineral highlights. In the background, these brooding flavors from the woody Bicuishe are always subsumed in the sweet minerality of the Tobala. This play of flavors makes you sit and contemplate, but theres a real tension because the mezcal is so restrained that you always expect something else to happen.
