Description
In Puebla, the Alva family works with Montelobos founder Iván Saldaña to make this Joven Ensamble. The family brings more than 15 years of agave cultivation experience. The mezcal combines Cupreata, Espadín and tails from Montelobos Tobalá. Those three elements form the basis of the blend.
Earthy and herbal aromas lead, followed by wildflowers and a little spice. Gentle smoke adds another layer to the nose. The palate opens with cooked-agave sweetness before moving toward earthy and vegetal flavors. Herbal and floral details sit alongside the smoke, which remains measured throughout the taste. The combination keeps sweetness, earth and green notes in balance.
Serve neat in a traditional mezcal glass. Take small sips and leave time to follow the different agave elements as the flavors develop.
