Verdict
This is the La Luna release most drinkers should buy first. It's a full-family ensamble with a friendlier proof (46.12%) and a rounded mouthfeel that makes it welcoming without being diluted. Buy as a first La Luna; trade up to the straight bruto and chino once you know you want the fuller Michoacán vocabulary. Strong gateway into a strong producer.
La Luna's entry bottle – a soft first page
Tasting notes
Nose: Green note over cooked agave, herb, faint pepper, smoke
Palate: 46.12% – Isidro Perez Escot and Isidro Rodríguez Montoya's cupreata-azul-manso ensamble is La Luna's most approachable bottle; softer than the straight bruto, more agave-sweet, with the Michoacán character still audible
Finish: Warm, clean
The bottom line
Buy as a first La Luna; graduate to bruto after
