      Ensamble is Madre’s centrepiece. It’s a blend of Espadin and the rare, wild agave, Cuishe, which only counts for 1-2% of agave species. The lion’s share of the blend is crafted by Jose Ines Garcia Morales and his family in San Dionisio, with a little Cuishe supplied from the Vazquez palenque in Miahuatlán.

      A departure from the overtly smoky Mezcal that abounds, the blend of sweet Espadin and piquant Cuishe is designed to be a perfect first taste for a new Mezcal drinker, as well as a great everyday sipper for the Mezcal aficionado. As the flavours unfold, you seem to taste something different with every sip: herbal and smoky notes, sage and minerals and sweet earthy fragrance. The finish is clean and lingering, underpinned by subtle smoke and floral flavour. Each small batch release is bottled in recycled glass and hand numbered.

      “This Ensamble is made using Espadín and Cuishe agave, and serves rich tropical fruit and bonfire smoke notes that flow from nose to palate. Its alcohol content ups the intensity of those aromas and flavors, delivering a well-balanced experience and an approachable introduction to the category.” Vinepair (15 best Mezcal brands and best Mezcals for sipping 2022)

    Madre Mezcal

    The brand was founded in 2013 by two friends, Danny Mena and Moy Guindi, who were inspired by the mezcal culture they experienced while traveling in Mexico. They set out to create a mezcal that was both authentic and accessible to a wider audience. The name "Madre" means "mother" in Spanish, and is a nod to the nurturing qualities of the agave plant and the traditional production process.

    Madre Mezcal sources its agave from family-owned farms in Oaxaca, Mexico, where the plants are grown and harvested using sustainable practices. The mezcal is then distilled using a traditional process that involves cooking the agave in an underground pit oven, crushing it with a stone wheel, fermenting the juice, and distilling it in copper stills. This process gives the mezcal its unique flavor profile, which can vary depending on the type of agave used and the region where it was grown.

    Madre Mezcal offers several different varieties of mezcal, each with its own distinct flavor profile. These include joven (young), reposado (rested), and añejo (aged) mezcal. The brand has received numerous awards and accolades for its mezcal, including a Gold Medal at the 2021 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
