Verdict
Quiereme Mucho's cuishe does the job without making much of a case. Compared to Puntiagudo's Rolando Angeles cuishe or Real Minero's, this bottle sits like the budget karwinskii – competent but without the signature. Fair entry, skip if you already own a serious cuishe.
Cuishe at 45% barely holds the karwinskii structure together
Tasting notes
Nose: Apple skin walks in first. Then faint mineral, light smoke
Palate: Clean, lightly limestone, mid-weight. 45-47% proof range puts this in the working-cuishe zone but toward the lower edge. Drinkable and recognizable, not memorable
Finish: Stony, clean
The bottom line
Not worth the spend. Puntiagudo's Angeles cuishe is the upgrade
