Experience the captivating synergy of two distinct agave expressions with Siete Misterios Mezcal Espadín/Cuishe Ensamble.

Tasting Notes
While the exact tasting notes will depend on the specific blend of Espadín and Cuishe in each batch, expect a profile that often exhibits a compelling interplay of characteristics:
- Aromas: The nose typically presents a welcoming foundation of cooked agave sweetness and subtle smokiness often associated with Espadín, beautifully interwoven with the more earthy, herbaceous, and sometimes slightly peppery notes characteristic of Cuishe. You might also detect hints of fresh green vegetables, a touch of minerality, or a subtle floral or citrus complexity arising from the ensamble.
- Palate: On the palate, the ensamble often offers a balanced and evolving experience. The smooth and accessible character of Espadín provides a counterpoint to the more pronounced vegetal and earthy notes of the Cuishe. Expect a dance between sweet agave, savory herbal tones, perhaps a hint of bitterness or spice, and a distinct mineral backbone that adds depth and intrigue.
- Finish: The finish is typically medium to long, offering a satisfying blend of the characteristics from both agaves. You might notice a pleasant warmth, a touch of smokiness, a lingering earthiness and vegetal quality, and a final subtle sweetness that invites further exploration of this unique combination.
Siete Misterios Mezcal Espadín/Cuishe Ensamble offers a fascinating glimpse into the art of blending agave spirits, showcasing how the familiar and the distinctive can come together to create a mezcal that is both intriguing and deeply satisfying.

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.
