Amarás Verde Mezcal (70cl, 42%)

Amarás Verde Mezcal is made from 100% Espadín agave from Oaxaca. The agave grows for about six to eight years before harvest. It is cooked in a conical stone oven fired with oak, ocote pine and pirul, then crushed by tahona. Fermentation takes place in pine vats and the spirit is distilled twice in copper stills. It is bottled at 42% in a 70cl bottle. The bottle label is designed by different artists and remains a surprise. The nose shows delicate sweet jasmine with a hint of herbs. The palate brings cooked agave, earthy and spicy notes. The finish combines smoke with a gentle caramel-like sweetness.
