ArteNOM Selección 1579 Blanco:
The Peak of Agave Artistry
At a staggering elevation of 6,788 feet in the remote mountain town of Jesús María, the air is thin, the soil is rich, and the agave is pushed to its absolute limit. This is the birthplace of Selección 1579, a "Blanco Clásico" that defines the elegance of high-altitude viticulture.
Crafted by the legendary Felipe Camarena at the world-renowned Destilería El Pandillo, this expression is a masterclass in innovation and sustainability. Felipe utilizes "stressed" hillside agave, which concentrates sugars and complex phenols, resulting in a spirit that is as resilient as the terrain it inhabits.
The Craftsmanship
To achieve its signature depth, the agave is slowly roasted in traditional brick ovens and macerated intact with its fibers, a technique that ensures a richer, fuller agave profile. Fermented with pure rainwater and slowly distilled in small copper pot stills, the spirit is finally aerated before bottling to soften the edges and let the aromatics soar.
Tasting Notes
- Color: Crystal clear with a heavy, luscious agave viscosity that coats the glass.
- Nose: An evocative bouquet of rising pastry dough and fresh spring rain, punctuated by cool mint and the deep, savory scent of bold roasted agave.
- Palate: A velvety, almost wine-like texture. It begins with a gentle fresh chile tingle and evolves into layers of white pepper and sweet spearmint candies.
- Finish: Clean, bright, and enduring, a true "instant classic.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
