Description
El Jolgorio Cenizo was one of the first Special Release bottlings introduced in 2015. Like the inaugural edition, 2019’s entry is produced by mezcalero Ignacio Parada in the remote village of Santa Maria Zoquitln. Known lovingly as “Don Chucho,” Ignacio Parada was the first mezcalero to join the Casa Corts collective in 2012 and, historically, has produced a wide variety of exceptional mezcals for the El Jolgorio brand, including Espadin, Tepeztate, Jabal, Tobala, and Madrecuixe. Intensely vegetal and mineral driven, past bottlings of Don Chucho’s Cenizo are highly regarded and difficult to locate.
