Verdict
A strong foundational release. Comunidad No. 1 from Bramaderos at 48% is the project's inaugural five-agave release (barril, bicuishe, coyote, espadín, mexicano) – the template against which subsequent Comunidad bottlings are measured. The first Comunidad is still the template because the composition logic (multiple agaves, single village, community production) remains the project's defining framework. Consensus matches. A category-defining Comunidad.
The first Comunidad is still the template
