Tasting Notes:
Madre Mezcal Ensamble is a balanced, approachable artisanal mezcal made from a blend of 70% Espadín (Agave angustifolia) and 30% Cuishe (Agave karwinskii). On the nose, it shows gentle smoke with layers of citrus zest, fresh herbs, and roasted agave. The palate is smooth yet complex, revealing flavors of sweet agave, pineapple, peppercorn, and a touch of salinity. The finish lingers with earthy minerality, subtle spice, and a clean wisp of smoke. Crafted to be equally enjoyable neat, on the rocks, or in cocktails.

About the Producer:
Madre Mezcal works with small, family-owned palenques in Oaxaca to produce additive-free mezcals using traditional methods. The Ensamble is made in San Dionisio Ocotepec, where agaves are cooked in earthen pits, milled with a stone tahona, naturally fermented in open-air wooden vats, and double-distilled in copper stills. By blending Espadín’s fruity sweetness with Cuishe’s herbal, earthy character, Madre creates a mezcal that is both inviting to newcomers and rewarding for seasoned drinkers.
