Destreza Mezcal Espadin (75cl, 41%)

An artisanal espadín mezcal from Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca, made by Maestro Mezcalero Hernán Hernández. The label reads Mezcal Artesanal, Espadín Joven and 100% Maguey, and the agave is Agave angustifolia. Espadín typically matures for roughly 7–10 years before traditional earthen-pit cooking, crushing, open-air fermentation and double distillation. It is unaged and bottled at 41% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The profile is smooth and complex with fine fruity, citrus and woody notes.
