Siembra Metl Don Mateo Cenizo

Michoacán

Siembra Metl Don Mateo Cenizo is a joven mezcal distilled from the cenizo agave species. This spirit presents a complex profile where fruity and floral aromas of peach and vanilla contrast with piney and sap notes on the palate. The mouthfeel is rich yet supple, leading to a finish that ranges from pleasantly sweet and vegetal to sharp and hot. While the nose may appear muted or lifeless, the taste reveals sweet agave and pepper without being cloying. This batch offers a unique character defined by its distinct pine expression and mineral undertones.
