HOW TO SERVE

A superb sipping Mezcal that works equally well served slightly chilled or in traditional cocktails.

X-FACTOR

The judges fell in love with the bold and pure botanical aromatics and flavors.

TASTING NOTE

Bright, crystal clear. The nose is subtle, offering scents of tropical fruit, agave, and kumquat with supporting notes of grass, bacon, and campfire. The palate substantially agrees with the nose delivering a grass-driven core with flavors of smoke, tropical fruit, citrus zest, and straw. The finish is long. Medium to full-bodied and substantially balanced with a vibrant texture.
