REAL MINERO 2017 ESPADÍN / LARGO / BARRIL / MADRECUISHE | 700 ML

This expression is made with 35% Maguey Largo (Agave Karwinskii 14 years to mature) 36% Maguey Espadín (Agave Angustifolia 10 years to mature) 17% Maguey Barril (Agave Karwinskii 15 years to mature) and 12% Maguey Madrecuishe (Agave Karwinskii 14 years to mature): The whole process is done by mixing all of the agaves from start to finish, compared to just blending after the distillation. That is the main difference between brands- some maestros like Edgar prefer to mix agaves instead of just blending to create their "ensambles". This way of doing it makes a huge difference. On top of that, this rare batch has rested patiently in glass bottles since 2017, which gives an extra layer of aromas and flavours, and adds a soft round profile to this exquisite mixture of agaves.
