Verdict

A strong Comunidad. Amatengo village is a top-tier origin for karwinskii-family wild agaves, and the Comunidad No. 6 barril at 48.8% delivers the village's characteristic weight with community-maestro discipline. Single-village numbered releases let drinkers track specific palenques across the project's range.
