Lokita Espadin Mezcal (75cl, 40%)

An artisanal mezcal from Oaxaca, Mexico, made by mezcalero maestro Arturo Martínez from 100% espadín agave. The agave matured eight years before harvest. The piñas are slow-roasted for three to four days in volcanic stone pits, crushed by tahona stone, fermented with endemic wild yeasts in pine-wood tanks, and double distilled in small copper alembics. The result is silky, gently smoky, with sweet roasted agave, pepper and earthy minerals.
