Corte Vetusto Mezcal Espadín
Corte Vetusto, "the ancient cut," is made by Juan Carlos González Díaz, a fourth-generation Zapotec maestro mezcalero whose family's craft goes back to his great-grandfather, Don Mauro. González Díaz first built a career as an architect before being pulled back into mezcal, learning from maestros across Oaxaca while traveling village to village with his father. He distills in San Pablo Villa de Mitla in Oaxaca's central valleys, under NOM O363X. The Espadín is the brand's flagship and the cleanest view of the house style. Mature espadín is roasted in an earthen pit over mesquite wood, chosen specifically for the flavor it gives the finished spirit, then crushed with a stone tahona, fermented naturally with wild yeast, and distilled twice in a 250-liter copper pot still. It is bottled unaged as a joven. Published tasting notes describe sweet mesquite smoke on the nose with peach, pineapple and subtle herbs, and a palate of roasted agave sweetness with citrus, black pepper, mint and green, vegetal tones. A mezcal to sip neat, or to use where an espadín should actually taste of the agave.
