{"product_id":"mezcal-isidro","title":"Mezcal Isidro Rodriguez 'Alto'","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDon Isidro’s alto defies a lot of stereotypes of mezcal from michoacán, specifically its clean, mineral-driven character, and lack of funky, lactic flavors, which many mezcaleros and drinkers enjoy. Isidro avoids the cheesy notes by creating relatively fast fermentations (others in the region can go on for 30+ days, which he achieves by adding a couple of liters of pulque to every thousand liters of mashed agave.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e***\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eWe first met Don Isidro in 2017 while exploring the pueblos and vinatas (distilleries) of Michoacán. A new friend in Patzcuaro had suggested making a trip to Río de Parras, and Isidro’s home was the first place we stopped when we got there. He had two batches on hand, an alto and an alto pechuga made with trout from nearby Lake Cuitzeo. Both were incredibly good, and unlike anything we’d tasted before. The alto was super clean, light, and mineral-driven with a touch of fruit, and the fish pechuga was surprisingly more delicious and less weird than expected.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e- Mal Bien\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eVibes with:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch5 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003ePalomas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eA housewarming party\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eCarnitas and kale nachos.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mal Bien","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40777482010677,"sku":"MALBIENalto0120","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0069\/4645\/5615\/files\/0058E79E-A1A0-4A8C-B691-DFF0D3A5ED08.jpg?v=1785527821","url":"https:\/\/domestiquewine.com\/products\/mezcal-isidro","provider":"Domestique Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
