| Review: |
"One of the most varietally consistent agave to experience, Tepextate is a massive and stunning plant that typically takes over 20 years to reach maturity. Known for its powerful floral and pepper aromatics, and an acid so strong it can burrow its roots into sheer rock walls, this example from Cruz de Fuego is an ideal introduction to the beauty of the variety. Mezcal made from Agave marmorata is truly one of life’s greatest pleasures. Expect an electric, velvety texture with notes of Sichuan peppercorn, blue flowers, green bell peppers and soft garden soil lasting with a long finish on this expression. 47% ABV" |
