Deep agave nose with a smoke tinged penumbra. Quite fruity on the entry with a naturally sweet flavor accented by an earthy smokiness. A round and balanced mouthfeel with plenty of bright high notes cutting through the darker tonalities. Long finish, with woodfire lingering on the palate. A flavorful and authentic mezcal that is one of the better expressions we've tasted.
This is my first mezcal that isn't tequila, and I wanted to like it, but sipping it neat is impossible for me. I can detect underlying flavors, but I can't get past the overwhelming aroma, flavor, and finish of band-aids. I left it at a friend's for margaritas.
Delicious, not too much of one thing, a little sweetness, some smoke, gently layered and smooth
Smoke, grapefruit, wood, pepper. Smooth and sweet, a little smoky on the palate. @twostal
Better nose. Good smoke. Slightly sweet. Burns on the finish.
Tried neat with @Looneyhead. Bought in Guadalajara, Mexico.
