\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThis Canadian whisky from Bearface uses the \u2018one-eleven rule\u2019, which allows producers to blend ten parts of one whisky with one part of another. In this particular whisky, ten parts of single grain Bearface Canadian whisky are married with one part Mezcal distilled from foraged agave espad\u00edn from the village of Baltazar Guelavila by Maestro Mescalero Pedro Hern\u00e1ndez. Bottled at 85 proof. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHoly Coa de Jima Batman! The agave is strong on the nose and augments the wood and caramel aromas in a way that adds up to a tobacco-like smokiness.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIt\u2019s fascinating that although the mezcal is only a small portion of the blend, it\u2019s the agave flavors that come out swinging on the palate. <\/p>\n

That distinctive, semi-acidic sweetness opens space for a more characteristic caramel body with an omnipresent smoky background. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe smoky flavor lingers with a hint of sweetness and earthiness that eventually fade. \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThat smoky flavor is likely going to be polarizing as it sort of crescendos over the course of the whisky\u2019s time on the palate and becomes an almost acrid\/charred taste on the first sip. I found my palate calibrated to it after a couple sips and it became less overwhelming, but if you don\u2019t care for smoke you probably won\u2019t care for this. Overall the Oaxaca One Eleven is very unique; a fun and mostly successful experiment that suffers a bit from the overly assertive smoke notes. This promises to be a versatile cocktail ingredient.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
