Distiller Notes
Mezcales de Leyenda presents the first limited release in the series: "Mezcales Unicos", with the purpose to offer the collectors or agave lovers, the opportunity to appreciate for the first time, an agave that had never been distilled before.
To initiate this innovative series, they picked the stunning agave montana, which grows wild in a hidden valley in the Sierra Madre Oriental in Tamaulipas. The result is a surprisingly wild and unique mezcal. Aromas of deep coal, herbal notes and moist forest. Flavors are medium sweet, powerful and very long final palate with sweet menthol tone.
Para todo mal, Mezcal, y para todo bien, también.
"For everything bad, Mezcal, and for everything good as well." Most often consumed straight or with salt, chilis and an orange, lemon, or lime, Mezcal is an agave-based spirit whose production methods vary widely depending on the region, traditions and preferences of the producer. Rather than boiling or steaming the agave, which is done in Tequila production, Mezcal is made by cooking the agave in wood-fired pits before fermentation. Consequently, Mezcal is often characterized by smoky nuances, which are a product of this alternative production method.
