Rey Campero Cuishe

Rey Campero Cuishe is a wild agave expression made from Agave karwinskii, known for its tall stalk and complex, fibrous structure. This mezcal is distilled in Candelaria Yegolé, Oaxaca by the Sánchez family, who are renowned for their artisanal craftsmanship and consistent excellence.

Cuishe delivers a drier profile than many Espadíns — offering herbaceous aromatics, green pepper, and a mineral backbone. A touch of smoke lingers beneath a lively, earthy flavor. It’s a great bottle to contrast against fruitier mezcals or as a gateway into more structured agave spirits.

A must-have for mezcal fans seeking wild agave character and rustic elegance.
