I will freely admit I’m not an expert on tasting Mezcal. That being said, this is harsh and aggressive to my taste buds. Almost that of paint thinner, burnt rubber, and anise. Wife hates it. I’m sipping on it, but not for much longer. Could be an acquired flavor. Will ask friends.
About this bottle
Bosscal Mezcal is produced in Durango, Mexico by fourth-generation mezcalero Uriel Simental Enriquez. He harvests wild-grown durangensis agave and follows artisanal production practices including the use of volcanic rock-lined pit ovens, hand-chopping & grinding the cooked piñas, and two-day spontaneous fermentation. An average of 17 kilos of agave produces one liter of spirit. (SRP $44.99)

Lightly sweet with agave character, and enrobed in a smokey woodfire garment. Very clean, medium in body, and with a lingering soft creosote coloration. One of the better organic spirits we've had. Try it in a Division Bell, Loaded Pistol, Garden Sour or simply on its own.
Love the level of smoke and complexity on this. Makes excellent margaritas.
Popcorn on the nose. Dry smooth
