Mezcal Derrumbes Tamaulipas

Mezcal Derrumbes Tamaulipas is an artisanal joven mezcal from Tamaulipas, Mexico. It is made from a field blend of three wild agave varieties: Americana, Funkiana and Univittata. The agaves are roasted in underground pits, naturally fermented and distilled in small clay stills. It is certified as Mezcal Artesanal with Denominación de Origen Protegida. The mezcal is earthy and exotic, with a wild, expressive flavour profile. It is highly limited and rarely seen outside Mexico. On the nose there are green pepper, leather, clay and wild herbs. The palate brings earthy smoke, tropical fruit, mineral notes and roasted agave. The finish is long and deep, with a rustic, savoury backbone and wild botanicals.
