Tasting Notes
"There's a lot going on with the aroma, not just the smoke, but yes there's smoke. There's also a huge earthy component with lots of clay, mineral, and dried herbs and tobacco. The mezcal is moderately full on the palate and the earthy, smoky profile returns. Sweet agave notes are found on the tip of your tongue, but the earthy, smoky profile dominates. Nothing wrong with that. Definitely a sipper, but it could stand to be a few degrees higher with the proof."
