Cutwater Joven Mezcal (75cl, 45%)

A joven mezcal made from wild Maguey Cenizo (Agave durangensis) harvested after 10 to 15 years in Durango, Mexico, in collaboration with the LTG Distillery. The agaves are roasted for three to five days in traditional volcanic rock-lined pit ovens fuelled by oak and mesquite, open-fermented with wild yeasts, and double distilled in stainless and copper stills. Bottled unaged, it shows wild agave and pit smoke. Nose: smoke from the pit roast and deep agave. Palate: green pepper and sweet cooked agave. Finish: lingering subtle smoke.
