🇲🇽LOST EXPLORER TASTING🇲🇽
We're very excited to host another agave evening with you all, this time courtesy of The Lost Explorer who are a producer of Mezcal, and as of the last couple of years, have been producing Tequila in the lowlands of Jalisco.
Mark first tried The Lost Explorer Salmiana when out and about, instantly falling in love with it. Quickly it was put it to the team that we should look to bring them into our agave selection. They have a unique approach to labelling their expressions, unlike wh**ky which has age statements for time spent in oak maturing, The Lost Explorer have stamped their expressions with the age of the agave at the time of harvesting. A lovely titbit for agave enthusiasts as this gives the consumer an assurance that each varietal has been given the time it needs to reach ripeness. Other such quality assurances are things such as NOM numbers, 100% agave and the Artesanal & Ancestral labels that all give the buyer an idea of production methods before even tasting the liquid.
As we were looking at stocking some of their Mezcal, the stars aligned when they produced and released their first Tequila with Maestro Tequilero Enrique de Colsa, formerly of Don Julio, a Master Distiller with three decades behind him. More recently we have taken their second tequila release onto our shelves, both are wonderful expressions of Tequila. The blanco carries an abundance of cinnamon, citrus and spice with a subtle prickly mouthfeel. The Reposado has a fascinating blend of casks, with Sauternes Dessert W**e Cask, Pedro Ximénez Sherry Cask and Bourbon Barrels which amount to a complex and persistent tequila, all about the vanilla profile here.
On this one off tasting evening, we will be working our way through their full range including: a welcome cocktail, 2 expressions of Tequila & 3 different expressions of Mezcal. They'll be presented by Latitude's good friend and agave enthusiast Adam Wilson. Adam has forgotten more than most know throughout his years working behind various bars and institutions across the globe, as well as helping to setup bars in 5 star hotels. Adam now works for Proof Drinks, who distribute The Lost Explorer along with a portfolio of brands you'll find on our shelves and at any decent bars or restaurants.
This should be a fantastic evening for anyone who already loves Tequila and/or Mezcal or for anyone who is new to the category, the agave expressions that we'll have on show perfectly showcase the breadth and diversity of agave and the production that goes into the finished product.
