Verdict
Lamata's Oaxaca ensamble from Jarquín is the brand's best available bottle, three-agave blends are the hardest to execute because they ask three voices to stay themselves, and this one does. Closer to what Real Minero does with their ensambles than anything else at the price. Buy this before the rest of the Lamata catalog. Consensus 4.3; we rate 4.5.
Jarquín's ensamble is Lamata at their curatorial peak
Tasting notes
Nose: Green herb, then stone, cooked agave, a mineral damp depth
Palate: Layered and complete at 49%. Jarquín's three-agave Oaxaca ensamble reads as a study, the espadín anchors, the karwinskii variants articulate, and the 49% proof is exactly where this blend wants to sit
Finish: Slate-tinged-green, slow cool fade
The bottom line
Three voices, all still themselves. Peak-curation ensamble at correct proof
