Wahaka Mezcal is produced by the family of 5th Generation Maestro Mezcalero Alberto Morales with help from the community of San Dionisio Ocotepec, Oaxaca. Wahaka Madre-Cuishes flavours are a product of its terroir. It is subtly herbaceous, with a hint of freshly fallen rain, this rare, wild-harvested agave often grows in the low-lying volcanic terrain of Oaxacas Central Valleys, where warmer temperatures and drier conditions give birth to more savoury, minerally mezcales. This Madre-Cuishe captures the singular character of this maguey and its environment very well. Its bright, earthy notes develop delicately and slowly, while its long finish allows those flavours to linger gently. The Madre-Cuishes unique citrus flavours pair wonderfully with a variety of foods including exotic fruits.
