I stopped into El Buho tequila shop yesterday. Emilio had a new release he wanted me to try. It is more of an artesanal/ancestral process, similar to mezcal and 42% abv. Aroma of raw agave, herbal, grass and earth. Flavors of black pepper, raw agave, earth, tropical fruit and a hint of smoke. It has a medium to long finish. Living in a mezcal region of Mexico, this was a nice bridge between the two.
Nose: Green. Both floral and herbal. Background baking spices. A resin-like aroma. Pine needles. Flavor: Gentle smokiness and pepper punch. Sweet, medium bodied with a bit of salinity. Anise and cinnamon on the retrohale. The sweetness is prominent.
