Product Description
Eduardo Pérez Cortez, nicknamed Lalo, produced this batch at his family’s modestly-sized palenque in El Nanche, Oaxaca. Lalo and his father, Tio Tello, harvest exclusively mature agave and maintain a tradition of hand mashing that is essentially lost in the region of Miahuatlan. This Ensemble of Cuixe, Madrecuixe and Espadin was distilled in 2007 and left resting in glass demijohns for about 15 years.

How It's Made
Eduardo co-roasts all of the agaves in an underground oven. After roasting, He cuts the agave with a machete and mashes them using by hand with wooden hammers. He ferments using cypress wood tanks and uses well water. Once the mash is ready, Lalo distils twice using a single copper alembic still. Delectably full of sweet spices and a velvety tannic texture

Nick Van Kempen –
Each and every bottle of 5 Sentidos is exciting – some just a bit more than others. This is one of the best. Its history makes it a keeper without even tasting it – aged in glass. Taste it and you’ll be rewarded with the robustness of 5 Sentidos and then the delicate flavours – citrus rind, dried fruits, (a fruit tingle-like buzz on the tongue at 50.5% -Batch CMETEL 07-AUS). Let the fruit-rich flavours hit the back palate and sit back and enjoy.
