El Jolgorio A Karwinskii 750ml

El Jolgorio Cenizo is made with maguey Cenizo (agave Karwinskii) that takes up to 14 years to mature. The first batch of this mezcal was released as a fairly large lot considering how seldom agave Cenizo is used in Oaxacan Mezcal. Master Mezcalero Ignacio Parada is well known for his work with wild agave, and this Cenizo is no exception to his strong record of creating great mezcal. Notes of this mezcal include sweet nectar, chalky minerals, and sea salt. It has a long, extended finish. Newer releases of this mezcal come in a black bottle, and are no longer labelled Cenizo as the CRM told El Jolgorio that in order to certify this mezcal, Cenizo could not be used to name this Karwinskii agave. Despite the local naming, this is now simply called a.Karwinskii.
