Mezcal Tasting: Unique Ensemble of Agave Inaequidens & Tequilana Hacienda Oponguio | Mezcal Buzz

Welcome back to Mezcal Buzz! Today, I’m excited to share a unique mezcal tasting of Mezcal Hacienda Oponguio, an incredible ensemble made from agave tequilana and inaequidens. Crafted with Don Pepe, co-founder of LA Tequila Club, this mezcal combines the best of both agave varieties for a one-of-a-kind tasting experience. I’ll take you through the aromas, flavors, and the traditional production methods that make this mezcal truly special, from stone-lined pit cooking to the unique Filipino still distillation.
Key Tasting Notes:
Aromas: Floral, citrus, and sweet cooked agave with hints of ripe fruit
Flavors: Sweet, ripe fruit upfront with citrus zest and a mild bitterness
Mouthfeel: Medium body, peppery with a smooth, coating finish

Thank you for the background on the collaboration and the other work that the brand does behind the scenes, many tasting reviews are missing these key points of reference. Salud!
