Señorío Añejo
An añejo in name only
Score: 1.5/5 agaves
- Producer: Señorío Mezcal
- Region: Tlacolula, Oaxaca
- Agave: Espadin
- ABV: 40%
- Price: $64 ($)
Verdict
Señorío's añejo is the kind of aged mezcal that exists to fill a category slot at a price point, not to carry a producer's voice. The agave is functionally absent. Consensus 1.5 is calibrated.
A bottle designed for an aisle, not a palate
Tasting notes
Nose: Heavy vanilla, confected wood, a faint mezcal shadow
Palate: 40% and barrel-first: the agave is a rumor. Reads like a bargain-shelf whiskey with a mezcal sticker
Finish: Sweet, evaporative. Short
The bottom line
Skip. Anything else at the same price is better
