Show Notes

PM Spirits Destilado de Agave review! Today I’m tasting this still-strength Espadín agave spirit bottled at a massive 61.1% ABV from Oaxaca, Mexico. Produced by mezcalero Rene Parada Barriga and sourced through Jason Paul Cox of Cinco Sentidos, this uncertified agave distillate delivers huge flavor, smoke, tropical fruit, minerality, and intense traditional character.

This PM Spirits Project Destilado de Agave is made using traditional methods including underground earthen pit roasting, natural fermentation in pine vats, and copper pot distillation with zero dilution. Bottled at still strength, this limited batch agave spirit is one of the boldest bottles I’ve reviewed on the channel.

In this video I break down:
