Emanuel Ramos on three karwinskii – the family portrait
Score: 4.0/5 agaves

Verdict
Verde (another karwinskii cultivar) on the label alongside bicuishe and madrecuishe is Emanuel Ramos presenting a karwinskii-family sampler inside a single bottle. At 48.29% the proof gives each agave voice, and the result is a genuine three-cultivar karwinskii study. Pour it alongside a solo madrecuishe to hear what verde adds.
Three karwinskii in one bottle is a category exam. This one passes
Tasting notes
Nose: Green herb, then wet slate, underripe pear, dry grass
Palate: 48.29% with bicuishe, madrecuishe, and verde each contributing a distinct voice – verde's slightly greener, more vegetal profile adding a fresh top note over the two established karwinskiis
Finish: Mineral, dry – long
The bottom line
Worth chasing. Karwinskii family sampler in one bottle
