Description

Luis and Donaciano Pacheco are the maestro mezcaleros behind Banhez Cuishe. They work exclusively with wild Cuishe agave, a species that presents particular challenges for production. Their knowledge of the plant is central to the mezcal. This is an opportunity to follow the work of two makers through a single agave and its distinctive combination of flavors.

Tropical fruit gives the palate its first point of focus. An acidic dryness balances that fruit character, while herbaceous notes add a green dimension. Those three elements remain the core of the tasting experience: fruit, dryness, and herbs. The result is approachable, with enough contrast to reward an unhurried pace.

Serve neat and take your time between sips. Let the tropical and herbal flavors unfold before returning to the glass.
