Description
The Rey Campero Mezcal CUISHE is an expressive, traditionally produced mezcal from Oaxaca that impressively reflects the diversity of wild agave varieties. For this limited bottling, only around ten-year-old Cuishe agaves are used, a wild variety from the Karwinskii family, which is known for its slender growth habit and particularly mineral aroma profile. Rey Campero stands for artisanal mezcal production in harmony with nature, whereby each agave is carefully selected and processed. The production process follows traditional methods: After harvesting, the agave hearts are roasted in earth ovens, then crushed, naturally fermented and distilled twice.
This Mezcal Joven, produced in February 2021, was bottled without ageing in order to preserve the original character of the Cuishe agave unadulterated. At 49% vol., it is powerful, complex and clearly structured. The combination of intense spice, pronounced minerality, fine fruity notes and elegant smokiness makes this bottling an authentic representative of high-quality, artisanal mezcals. The Rey Campero Cuishe is limited to 699 bottles worldwide. (automated translation)
Tasting notes:
Color: Clear.
Nose: Fruity bouquet with passion fruit, banana and mango, underpinned by subtle smoky notes.
Taste: Spicy chili pepper meets ripe lemon, delicate mint, floral accents and subtle smokiness.
Finish: Long-lasting, smoky and mineral with a spicy aftertaste.
This mezcal is ideal for drinking on its own to fully enjoy its complex aromas. In culinary terms, it harmonizes perfectly with grilled meat, mole dishes, roasted vegetables or spicy Mexican cuisine. It also unfolds its mineral-spicy depth particularly well with dark chocolate, citrus desserts or roasted nuts. In sophisticated mezcal cocktails, it brings structure, smoke and freshness, but remains most impressive as a pure sipping mezcal with a long-lasting character. (automated translation)
