JUNE 3, LOS ANGELES – With the announcement that Madre Ensamble received the Gold Outstanding Award at the IWSC Awards, Madre Mezcal’s signature expression has now taken the top prize at the year’s three most prestigious spirits awards. Earlier in the year, Madre Ensamble earned Double Gold at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and at The Spirits Business Tequila and Mezcal Masters, it was given the Mezcal Taste Master Award, ranking it as the #1 mezcal among all 129 products entered into the competition.
In addition to Madre Ensamble's 98/100 rating from the IWSC judges, Madre’s single agave expression, Madre Espadin, earned a 96/100 score and a Gold award. All products entered into the competition were scored by a judging panel of experts through a double-blind tasting.
“According to judging panels at three different award shows in the United States and Europe, Madre Ensamble is undeniably one of the best mezcals available– if not the best,” said Madre Mezcal CEO Chris Stephenson, “We are proud to be a leader in the fast-growing mezcal category, and are looking forward to continuing to share this beautiful spirit with drinkers around the world.”
Madre Ensamble is a 45% ABV mezcal made with a blend of Cuishe and Espadin agave.Madre Espadin is a 43% ABV mezcal made with 100% Espadin agave.
