Corte Vetusto Espadín 70cl
Corte Vetusto Espadín
Under the watchful eye of fourth generation Master Distiller Juan Carlos Gonzalez Diaz, Corte Vetusto Espadín Mezcal is produced. Before distillation, the agave is cooking in traditional earthen pit ovens, with mesquite specially chosen to heat said ovens for the flavours it imparts on the final spirit. This particular expression is made using the Espadín variety of agave - a favourite of Mezcal producers across Mexico. The spirit is double distilled before bottling at 45% ABV.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Earthy and subtly meaty smoke, with a prickle of black pepper and cooked sweet peppers.
Palate
Subtly creamy at points, with robust wafts of smoke maintaining dominance of the palate.
Finish
Flinty minerals, and a touch of vegetal oak.
