On the nose smoke, oranges, tropical fruits, berries and a touch of earth and minerals. Minty, fruity and spicy on the palate; smoke, earth, strawberry, minerals and pepper. Finishing with charred bitter citrus peels and ash. Nice.
About this bottle
This mezcal is produced in the Mexican state of Puebla, a recent addition to the recognized area for mezcal production. It is distilled from 100% Tobalá agaves (known in this region as Cenizo). The agaves are cooked in a lava rock lined pit for three days before they are mechanically milled and fermented for a further five days. The mezcal is double-distilled in copper pot-stills by Mezcalero Don Aaron Alba, a 4th generation producer. The agaves are organic and fair trade certified.
