Gusto Historico Espadin / Bicuixe
Victor Ramos espadín/bicuishe – refrescador ensamble at 49.2%
Score: 3.8/5 agaves
- Producer: Gusto Histórico
- Maestro: Victor Ramos
- Region: Miahuatlán, Oaxaca
- Agave: Bicuishe, Espadin
- ABV: 49.2%
- Price: $70 ($$)
Verdict
A well-made ensamble that doesn't match Ramos's single-agave peak. Buy if you're completing a Gusto Histórico Victor Ramos set; reach for his arroqueño or coyote first if you're picking only one.

Tasting notes
Nose: Cooked agave with wet stone, light floral
Palate: Refrescador gives the ensamble weight; 49.2% holds both components up. Less distinctive than Ramos's single-agave releases, but a cleanly executed karwinskii-espadín pair
Finish: Clean, mineral
The bottom line
Buy after the single-agave Ramos bottles
