Cinco Sentidos Cucharillo y Espadin Agave Spirit (El Cerrito Liquor Exclusive Batch) 48.7% ABV Mezcal 750ml
This post-distillation blend of Cucharillo and Espadin is a first of its kind Jose Garcia, Who has spent the past few years experimenting with the Cucharillo plant. He distilled a batch of Cucharillo in February of 2023, using the same traditional method as usual for him: roasting the plants in a underground oven with mesquite and encino as firewood, mashing the cooked plants with tractor-pulled tahona, and ambient-fermenting the mash with well water for weeks prior to distillation. The 55 liters that yielded from the February batch were later blended with 55 liters of Espadin he produced in June of 2023, using the same production method. Jose blended the two batches together to create this post-distribution Ensamble, and this bottling is the result. The liters of this batch not exported to U.S. were consumed.
