X-FACTOR
The judges noted this Mezcal's versatility while it wears its alcohol strength very well.
TASTING NOTE
Bright, crystal clear. The aromatics offer scents of baked agave, smoke, and citrus with supporting notes of grass and mineral. The palate is more intense than the nose delivering an agave-driven core with flavors of citrus zest, smoked meats, and grapefruit zest. The finish is dry and refined. Full-bodied and balanced with a juicy texture.
