86 proofNASJalisco, Mexico
Enrique Fonseca's Cosecha series is built on the idea that agave harvested in a specific year has a unique terroir signature worth preserving. The 2020 Cosecha is bright and precise, showcasing how slow-roasted highland agave can produce a blanco of uncommon depth. No additives, no shortcuts—just agave, time, and fire.

Tasting Notes

Nose

Bright cooked agave dominates, followed by lime zest and a grassy green vibrancy. Underneath, there is a subtle mineral earthiness and a whisper of white pepper.

Palate

Silky entry with roasted agave sweetness giving way to citrus peel and a pronounced herbal complexity—thyme and eucalyptus. The mid-palate delivers a clean mineral note and a touch of fresh almond.

Finish

Medium-long, with lingering pepper and a fade of cooked agave sweetness.
