Tasting Notes
"Despite additions, this mezcal has a fairly classic nose of sea salt, crushed lemon, gentle smoke, and roasted pepper. The palate is broad and slightly sweet — perhaps the influence of the Damiana plant. A tasty if not profound mezcal with clean flavors, brilliant packaging, and if the rumors about Damiana’s benefits are true, a potent extra feature."
