Gracias, Roberto. I've enjoyed many cenizos over time. I'd love to try yours sometime, but I guess you can understand: we just came back from Oaxaca and are very full with mezcal at this time! But it's true that I've had a more difficult time finding maestros in the north who will send samples--as they so often do from Oaxaca. So maybe you can give me some time, and we can do this in the near future?

Keep them coming! Our recent trip to Oaxaca would have been so much better with your info of this area. My favorite mezcal from this trip was Cruz de Diamantes Mexicano that clocked in at 53% but was so smooth and with layers of flavor. 2022, Loto 001, bottle 40/72.

Great, Trey. They were next on our list, but with the looong drive back to the city, we had to message them with our regrets. 😬
