Aguerrido Mezcal
Lamata Ensamble Oaxaca – Jarquín
Lamata Ensamble Oaxaca, Jarquín is a Destilado de Agave blend from Sozimo Jarquín in Miahuatlán, Oaxaca. This Ensamble combines Angustifolia and Karwinskii agaves distilled at forty nine percent alcohol. The nose presents dank earth, preserved lemons, kiwi, chile de arbol, roasted cauliflower, honey, orchids, and chamomile. Palate notes include rich syrupy sweetness from turnip and chamomile, with acids highlighting rainier cherries and honeycrisp apples. The finish offers ripe peach, pear, pecans, nutmeg, roasted turnips, white nectarines, and vanilla. This spirit balances light fruit with toasty warmth and a lingering evolution in the glass.

About the Brand
Lamata (formerly named Amormata) is the for-export label of Nacion de Las Verdes Matas, a small unregistered brand started by Luis Loya many years ago. His goal is to share mezcal from Northern Mexico from places that are under-represented in the market. Luis has relationships with producers in Durango, Nuevo Leon, Sonora, Chihuahua, San Luis Potosi and Tamaulipas among others. The typical lot sizes of Lamata releases range from about 40 liters to 200 liters. The producers will continue to make about the same amount of spirits that they historically have in the past. Therefore, the brand will not bottle much more than a total of three to five thousand liters per year. Lamata is dedicated to promoting the “gusto historico”, the terroir, the liquid culture, and the history that is mezcal to people beyond the borders of the places where it is made.
