Cat Joven
The joven version of the Cat problem
Score: 1.0/5 agaves
- Producer: Cat Mezcal
- Region: Mexico
- Agave: Espadin
- ABV: 40%
- Price: $40–90 ($$)
Verdict
Consensus 0.5. The community is right. The category has its own floor, and Cat sits under it, the joven version of the same problems that afflict the añejo, without even the oak-aging to partially hide the base. Industrial production reading as mezcal on the label but not in the glass. Neither the joven nor the añejo deserves your money.
