TASTING NOTES
YOUNG (LESS THAN ONE YEAR OLD AT BOTTLING), HANDCRAFTED MEZCAL MADE OF 100% WILD AGAVE (AGAVE POTATORUM). THIS CRYSTALLINE DISTILLATION RANGES FROM 47% TO 50% ALCOHOL, DEPENDING ON THE CONDITIONS SPECIFIC TO EACH LOT. THE BOUQUET IS CHARGED WITH STRONG TONES OF THE FLESH OF THE AGAVE PLANT. ON THE PALATE, THE EFFECT IS SWEET, LONG-LASTING AND DISTINCTIVELY FLORAL. THE AFTERTASTE CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS FRESH AND GREEN WITH TRACES OF ANISE AND WET EARTH AFTER A STORM. BECAUSE PIERDE ALMAS ONLY USE WILD TOBALA BROUGHT DOWN FROM THE HILLS AND THE FACT THAT THEY CAN ONLY BE HARVESTED IN THE FEW WEEKS PRECEDING THE FIRST RAINS, THE YEARLY PRODUCTION OF THIS VERY SPECIAL JUICE IS EXTREMELY LIMITED. IT THEREFORE HAS A HIGH PRICE TAG, BUT MY WORD IT IS WORTH IT. CHEERS, STEPHEN W.
