Description
Palenquero Faustino Garcia Vasquez makes Chichicapa Boca Del Cerro in San Balthazar Chichicapam, Oaxaca. Part of Del Maguey's Single Village series, this special edition uses 100% Espadín agave and wood-fired copper pot stills. Its name means “Mouth of the Hill,” referring to the elevated slopes where the agave grows.
Citrus and roasted agave lead the nose, followed by smoke, earth and tropical fruit. Herbs and toasted nuts add detail. The full-bodied, silky palate combines sweet roasted agave with green herbs and pepper. Caramelized pineapple, citrus zest and cacao develop within the smoke. A long, warming finish leaves smoky and mineral notes.
Sip neat from a copita or small clay cup. A large ice cube can soften the smoke. Pair with tlayudas, mole negro or grilled meats, or mix a Mezcal Old Fashioned.
