Campanilla del Palmar Verde Quiotero
Verde quiotero from M. Maria de la Luz – a variant distillation

Verdict
A strong Campanilla release. Quiotero distillation is a traditional SLP technique, the flowering stalk gets distilled with the piña rather than separately – and at 47-50% the treatment adds herbal density the standard verde doesn't reach. M. Maria de la Luz's willingness to bottle process variants alongside standard single-agave releases is what makes Campanilla a category-education project. No consensus; our read is 4.
