El Jolgorio Tepeztate Mezcal (75cl)

A wild-agave mezcal from Oaxaca, Mexico, distilled from Tepeztate agave (Agave marmorata) that can take up to twenty-five years to mature on Oaxacan cliffsides. The Cortés family works with maestro mezcaleros across the region. Production uses conical earthen pits for roasting, horse-drawn tahona crushing and double distillation in copper pots. The bottle is labelled with the distiller, village and agave age. It is herbal and earthy, with mint, citrus and smoke, plus intense floral, mineral and herbaceous notes.
