El Búho Especial Ensamble Review
A skilly fully balanced blend of Arroqueño, Coyote, Barril, and Cuishe, the four varieties are roasted, mashed, and fermented together. An expressive nose dances between green fruit, honey, and tart berries, enticing you in. The palate leans more minerally and savory but offers just as much range and depth.
