Palenque Madrecuische Gregorio Martinez
Why it’s different
From the Palenque Project, craft agave distillate made from Maguey Madrecuishe comes from San Baltazar Guelavila, Tlacolula, Oaxaca, and is produced by Eduardo Martìnez, who has picked up the baton from his father Gregorio.
Aroma notes: Mainly fresh citrus and floral notes. Peach and strawberry, then a sweetness of caramel and chewing gum emerges.
Tasting notes: Cereals, sourdough bread, with an astringent sensation that pushes towards a more herbaceous flavour, with the return of a toasted bread sweetness.
Curiosities
The Palenque project is the brainchild of Luca Gargano, who involved six agave distillate producers from various villages in the state of Oaxaca and project coordinator Hector Vazquez. The Maestros Palenqueros aim to draw a detailed map of Oaxaca's terroir, the diversity of agave species and the natural conditions that give the agave a wealth of information during its long growing process. These producers operate with an artisanal approach, some introducing modern changes at various stages of production, always paying attention to the quality of the soil, the agave and the production process, based on their personal recipe.
