Mezcal Vago Ensamble (Master Distiller Jarquin)

The Vago Ensamble with a blue label comes from Emigdio Jarquín Ramírez in Miahuatlan, Oaxaca. While Vago has produced Ensamble en Barro from Tio Rey for many years, and a few ensambles from Aquilino have been released over the years, Emigdio’s ensambles began hitting the market in 2018. They are a blend of everything you’d love about any Emigdio single-varietal release, and they give him an opportunity to showcase some different distillations.

This ensamble blends cuishe, madrecuishe and tepeztate.

AROMA: Watermelon juice. Chalky. Floral. Long lasting, bright aromas. Very nice.
TASTE: Cherry Gummi Bears. Bamboo shoots. Lavender. A tad cheesy (Parmesan) and woodiness (fresh bark) in the finish.
Overall, packs a great punch of flavour
ENJOY: Benefits from opening up in the glass. Sipping mezcal is enjoyed slowly and with friends.
