Pierde Almas Mezcal
Alipus San Luis XX Aniversario
Alipus San Luis XX Aniversario is a mezcal ensemble from Oaxaca. This batch blends Angustifolia and Marmorata agaves under NOM-O14X. Producer Baltazar Cruz Gomez milled the hearts in a tahona stone before distilling them in copper. 4 percent ABV. Early notes of French crêpes and maple syrup shift to raisin toast and plum pudding. Ripe cantaloupe and vanilla ice cream emerge on the nose later. A lactic flavor deepens brown sugar, Portuguese egg custard, and green banana on the palate. The finish stays spicy and floral with black pepper and damp moss.
