100% MONTELOBOS YOUNG MEZCAL 750ML

Balance between agave sweetness, subtle smokiness and herbal freshness

This young mezcal is produced in Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca, recognized as the mezcal capital of the world. It is produced with sustainably cultivated organic Espadín agave and is made using traditional methods: baking in a conical stone oven, milling with a tahona (a traditional Mexican bakery), fermentation in wooden vats with natural yeasts, and double distillation in a copper still. The result is an artisanal mezcal with a perfectly balanced profile of vegetal, sweet, and smoky notes.
