Corte Vetusto Ensamble 70cl

Corte Vetusto present the limited edition Ensamble (blend), aimed at challenging UK perceptions on mezcal and agave. Claiming that single malt whisky has a genuine sipping alternative and that mezcal can be a premium cocktail ingredient, the brand are determined to showcase the variety of flavour within agave.

Using an artisan method of production, a conical earth oven cooks the trio of agave used (Madrecuixe, Cuixe and Coyote) until it is ready to be milled by volcanic stone before natural fermentation can take place. Ensamble is distilled to proof (43% ABV) in a 250L copper still, before second distillation occurs in an ancestral 70L clay pot still. Corte Vetusto Ensamble is unaged, or Joven, in Mexican.
