Amaras Mezcal

Subtly perfumes the nose with a nice touch of bergamot and blossom, wich continue to unfold with every taste, giving way to a first touch of santal wood, and closing up to the sweetness of matured mango (tropical fruits). During the after taste, a velvety salted texture takes over finishing with a slight cinnamon touch.

Nuestra Soledad San Luis Del Rio

The intense aroma of Nuestra Soledad's San Luis Del Rio mezcal may raise a warning flag, but it's actually very approachable on the palate. An initial hit of peppery spice gives way to a long finish with lots of minerality and just a hint of smoke. It's a very good, easy-to-enjoy distillate of espadín.

A tinge of smoke complements these qualities without overwhelming the delicate balance found in Xicaru.

This mezcal is the most rare we have ever encountered.
