Verdict

Ramón García Sánchez's capón shows a lighter hand on fermentation than some of his Miahuatlán peers, and the bottle rewards the difference, lifted where others are dense. Three reviewers at 4.0 matches our read. Build a capón flight: Juan Vásquez, Hermógenes, Ramón. That's an afternoon.

Each maestro's capón is a window into their fermentation

Tasting notes

Nose: Cooked pear. Then warm agave, wet limestone, faint herb

Palate: 47.9% capón where Ramón's lighter fermentation style shows, concentrated but more floral-lifted than Celedonio's or Hermógenes'

Finish: Floral-mineral, clean

The bottom line

Buy for the capón flight
