Yummy stuff. Wine influence is muted but present behind the agave upfront. 50% ABV carries a ton of sweetness and surprisingly leads to a very nice finish.

Cambio’s El Corazon high proof is an experimental release where the tails & heads are discarded in favor of only the hearts off the still. Additionally, El Corazon’s mash is fermented to a higher Brix level than any previous release. I was told it’s fermented to a staggering 19 brix. The result is a far more fruity profile than the base blanco. The aromatics from this high proof blanco reminded me of a Tobala mezcal. As mentioned there is a significant amount of fruit here with crisp Fiji apple, cherry, banana, light citrus, peach and lime. Like the base blanco, there is a significant minerality to this high proof with a saline “ocean breeze” component. Long finish

On the nose: White peach, ripe pear, orange blossom and cooked agave. On the pallet: Creamy vanilla, toasted spice, honey, stewed apple and cooked agave. It’s creamy, it’s flavor packed, it’s hot, it’s everything a blanco could be. I’m obsessed with this expression. The way the flavors blend and dance with eachother. The fruit forward notes really make it unique. I’m very excited to see what Cambio comes out with next
