Verdict
Aniceto García builds a four-agave ensamble where the arroqueño provides the floor and the karwinskii family provides the ceiling, a complex bottle that stays legible. Mezcalosfera releases typically reward deep attention, and this one earns the time. Buy when the release rotates through; the format disappears fast.
Four wilds under one maestro, at one proof – the Mezcalosfera thesis
Tasting notes
Nose: Dark chocolate – then wet wood, green herb, dry mineral dust
Palate: 49% with arroqueño's weight anchoring and the karwinskii trio adding dry, flinty, architectural lift, a big ensamble that holds together
Finish: Long, deep, river rock
The bottom line
Hunt it. Classic Mezcalosfera four-agave chord
