I have almost no experience with mezcal. Time to fix that. Tasted neat from a small snifter.
The nose is quite vegetal and complex. Agave, cactus, succulents, green olive, ethanol, and a sweet element that reminds me of fennel seed.
There's also a whiff of bay leaves and a sour note that rides in the background.
On the tongue the first impression is sweet and smoky that's followed by a mild pepper and alcohol bite. I am immediately reminded of a light Isle scotch.
The finish is long and slightly warming. There's a bitter vegetal note riding over a sweet chord. Mouthfeel is rich and creamy.
Clearly I need more experience with mezcal but I like this one so far. Any rating I give should be tempered with the knowledge that I haven't critically considered mezcal before this. I do hope this one is representative of the category, however. I like it!
Nose - salt, citrus, fragrant, agave
Palate - salt, smoke, agave, zesty
Finish - medium, coating, mild spice
Overall - very tasty, loving the mild smoke and zest of it and the way it coats your mouth at the end. I would drink a lot of this
