Volume 10

DROPS 11/24/23

 Selections

We had some great batches to choose from when putting together this special puntas edition of Mixtape. Unfortunately, some of our favorites were also some of the smallest.

All of the Vol. 10 boxes will include a bottle of Victor’s Puntas de Sierra Negra, and Ageo’s Puntas de 4 Magueyes. The third bottle in each box will be either Javier’s Puntas de 6 Magueyes or Lalo’s Puntas de Espadín. Both are excellent. So excellent we couldn’t choose one over the other. And now, just like us, you also won’t be able to choose.

There are an equal number of boxes containing Javier’s and Lalo’s batches, and we won’t accept requests for one or the other. You just get what you get, and we promise you won’t be upset.

If you, really, truly must have all of the bottles, you can order two boxes at the same time, in which case we’ll make sure you receive one box that includes Javier’s batch and one box that includes Lalo’s. To make sure you get both, there must be two boxes on the same order/receipt.

Now, on to the fun stuff…
