Don Amado Tobala-Bicuishe Ensamble Review
Heavy doses of nuanced smoke notes define this Oaxacan blend of Tobalá and Bicuishe. After the smoke parts, attractive stone fruit and black tea notes come to the fore, followed by a weighty, slightly sweet palate. Smoke re-emerges on the finish. making this a great bottle for peated Scotch drinkers looking to explore other spirits.
