Cumbrita De La Sierra Ensamble Lechuguilla & Chawi Mezcal- 750ml

Wildly diverse profile; lactic notes of yogurt, sweet cream, and parmesan rind play against lemon zest, vanilla bean, and a cornucopia of fruity red vibes—from hibiscus hips to strawberry candy, Red Zinger tea, and fresh tobacco leaf; a vegetal underpinning of cedar and quinine lend weight to the finish after an otherwise lean and cool minerality
Distilled in October 2023; 160 liters produced
47.5% ABV (ABV may vary batch to batch)
Another hyper-rare curio, this unusual ensamble from maestro Dolores González combines his signature Agave shrevei with Agave multifilifera—a species typically used as a decorative succulent, small in size and featuring a dense cluster of narrow leaves (pencas) with cream-colored edges and a thin webbing of marginal threads, like someone was building a nest of white hairs in the plant’s heart, earning it nicknames like “Starshine” and “Silly String” among American gardeners.
