Palenqueros Mezcal is marketed as Single Palenque mezcal, meaning that it’s produced by a single mezcalero at a single distilling facility. The brand is a collaboration project between Tradición Chagoya, which owns and operates other mezcal brands like Donaji and Los Cuerudos, and Velier Italia, an Italian spirits company.
Both rich and deep, the initial nose is slightly smoky and medicinal (ointment). Allowed to breathe, it opens up into notes of lime, aniseed and liquorice. Increasingly dense and vegetal, the aromatic palette evokes a lit Havana cigar. The generous attack invites us to savor a lime tart. Spicy (black pepper, nutmeg), it is also bursting with mineral salts. The vanilla mid-palate becomes considerably sweeter. The end of the palate is refreshingly mentholated. The smooth finish is milky (coconut, agave) and floral (hyacinth, elderflower). The retronasal olfaction prides itself on bringing to the fore the deeply earthy flavors rooted in the soil (ginseng) of the tobaziche agave.
