Rey Campero Madrecuishe Artesanal Mezcal (200ml)
Elevate your collection with this 200ml expression of Rey Campero Madrecuishe, a spirit that perfectly captures the wild, structural beauty of the Oaxacan landscape. This bottle, which carries a robust 49.2% ABV, is produced by Maestro Mezcalero Rómulo Sánchez Parada in the renowned village of Candelaria Yegolé.
The Madrecuishe (Agave karwinskii) is a wild, stalk-growing agave that thrives in the dry climate of the Central Valleys. Known for its dense, fibrous core and high mineral content, it produces a mezcal that is celebrated for its rigid structure and complex botanical profile. In the hands of the Sánchez Parada family, this challenging agave is transformed into a sophisticated spirit using traditional artisanal methods: earthen pit roasting, tahona grinding, and open-air fermentation.
Tasting Notes
- Aroma: The nose is strikingly clean and mineral-driven, reminiscent of wet slate and cooling rain on dry earth. Subtle floral notes of jasmine and dried herbs emerge as the spirit breathes.
- Palate: On the palate, the Madrecuishe displays its characteristic "green" profile. Expect vibrant flavors of fresh-cut grass, sage, and roasted peanuts, supported by a sweet, starchy core of cooked agave.
- Finish: The finish is long and remarkably dry, leaving a lingering trail of wood ash, pepper, and a refreshing, minty coolness.

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.
