    Mestiza Negra Mezcal

  • ABV:

    45%

  • Age:

    NA

  • Price:
    $$$$$
  • Intro:

    Distilled by Juana Escobar Bautista for the Mestiza Negra Mezcal brand, this Espadin is distilled on copper after grinding via tahona in Santiago Matatlan

  • Nose:

    Vibrant and unique on the nose, quite a bit of smoke and agave character. Sour fruit, mango, some clay and earth, faintly lactic.

  • Taste:

    Sweet on the palate, quite a bit of mango, papaya, honey, some sour fruit on the back palate. A hint of glue and plasticity before a lovely blueberry note comes through. Almost cotton candy-like.

  • Finish:

    Short finish, mild and quick to depart but not without a berry/clay/ash component to see us off.

  • Overall:

    Overall, quite nice! Enticing, interesting and complex for an Espadin. The berry character is particularly fun, and makes for a great welcome to drinkers - new and veteran, alike.

  • Score:
