The Impex Collection Coyote Verde Victor Ramos Mezcal
The ImpEx Collection is the independent-bottling program of ImpEx Beverages, where Sam Filmus and Chris Uhde select single casks of Scotch, small-batch rums and, starting here, agave spirits; this Coyote Verde was one of four mezcales from two producers in ImpEx's first agave edition. Victor Ramos works in Miahuatlán, Oaxaca, and Coyote Verde is a rare maguey that appears to be a natural hybrid of Agave potatorum and Agave karwinskii. He crushes the roasted agave with a tahona and single-distills in a copper refrescadera still, a traditional Oaxacan design that uses a cooling cap to condense the vapor in one pass rather than two. This batch, 0521VFR, was distilled in 2021, rested in glass for a year, and bottled unadulterated at 50.92% ABV (101.84 proof), in a run of only 264 bottles, labeled destilado de agave rather than certified mezcal. Drinkhacker gave it a B+ and found a sharp, smoky nose with spiced caramel and a candy-like sweetness dusted with Tajín, then a savory palate of green bell pepper, apple and green banana with a long, solvent-edged finish; Mezcal Reviews tasters picked up tropical fruit, mesquite, lemongrass, mineral granite and cocoa.
