Verdict
Commercial proof on artisanal liquid, the trade-off you feel on the mid-palate. Granja Nómada's San Dionisio espadín would be a 4-agave bottle at 47%; at 42% it sits in a middle lane. Pass unless the next bracket up is unavailable.

Tasting notes
Nose: Cooked agave leads. Mild herb, light smoke underneath
Palate: 42% is the ceiling here. The espadín reads cleanly but thinned; Hugo Cesar García González makes a clean spirit, the proof just doesn't let it stretch
Finish: Short-medium, clean
The bottom line
Stuck in the middle lane at 42%. Underproofed for the agave
