REY CAMPERO PONCHE DE FRUTAS MEZCAL 102 Proof 750ML

Rey Campero Ponche de Frutas is a festive, artisanal mezcal expression produced in the village of Candelaria Yegolé in Oaxaca, Mexico. This standout bottling draws inspiration from the Mexican holiday punch (“ponche navideño”) by incorporating seasonal fruits, spices and natural sweet-elements during distillation—creating a rich, complex spirit that blends tradition, craftsmanship and celebration.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Warm, slightly golden hue with a clear body—inviting and indicative of a well-crafted mezcal.
• Nose: Ripe and aromatic—notes of guava, apple, raisin, perhaps pineapple, with a comforting under-layer of cinnamon and warm baking spice. According to the product description, guava, apple, raisins and cinnamon are included in the distillation.
• Palate: Balanced sweetness of cooked agave meets the added fruit-punch character: dried fruits, candied citrus / fruit-cake like richness, a hint of warm wood/earth and the smoky mezcal backbone typical of Rey Campero’s style.
• Finish: Smooth, lingering—sweet-fruit echoes, gentle spice, and a moderate smokiness that rounds out the punch-inspired profile without overwhelming the palate.
