Rezpiral Series 7: Reina Sanchez Jabaí, Madrecuishe & Cuishe - Ensemble
A Symphony of Agaves from the Masterful Reina Sanchez Experience a harmonious and extraordinary blend of wild agaves with this limited-edition ensemble from the esteemed mezcalera Reina Sanchez. Crafted in a small community outside of Miahuatlán, Oaxaca, this mezcal is a testament to Reina's profound artistry and deep-rooted respect for tradition.
This unique ensemble artfully combines three distinct and challenging agave varieties—Jabali, Madrecuishe, and Cuishe—each bringing its own character to create a truly complex and captivating spirit. Reina's traditional process begins with the cooking of the agaves in an earthen horno. The agaves are then milled by a traditional tahona, and the mash is naturally fermented in open-air pine vats. The final spirit is meticulously double-distilled in copper pots, allowing the unique notes of each agave to shine through while creating a seamless and beautifully integrated flavor profile.
Tasting Notes:
- Nose: A powerful and intriguing bouquet that immediately showcases the complexity of the blend. Initial notes of bright tropical fruit (pineapple, mango) and a hint of wild flowers from the Jabali are balanced by the deep, earthy minerality and green herbal notes of the Madrecuishe and Cuishe. There's a subtle undertone of warm spice and a delicate, elegant smokiness that draws you in.
- Palate: The first sip is an exhilarating rush of flavor. The Jabali's signature wild fruit and tropical tang lead the way, followed by a savory, almost briny, character and the distinct minerality of the Karwinskii agaves (Madrecuishe and Cuishe). The palate is viscous and full-bodied, featuring a beautiful interplay of sweet and savory notes. Notes of roasted agave, white pepper, and a refreshing, minty herbalness create a dynamic and evolving experience.
- Finish: The finish is exceptionally long and clean, leaving a lingering warmth. It concludes with echoes of the initial fruit and spice, a satisfying earthy minerality, and a gentle, pleasant smokiness that invites another sip. The perfect balance and length of the finish are a testament to Reina's masterful blending.
2022, Series #7: Twenty-seven complex artisanal small batch agave spirits from eight families & pueblos/regions of Oaxaca.

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.
