Yuu Baal Joven Espadin Mezcal (75cl, 48%)

Yuu Baal Joven Espadin Mezcal is a joven mezcal bottled at 48% ABV in a 750ml bottle. It is made from Espadín agave grown for seven years before harvest, cooked in an underground pit oven, crushed by tahona, fermented in pine-wood vats and double-distilled in copper at NOM-072X in San Juan del Río, Oaxaca. Per brand copy, it shows roasted aromas of earth and spice with subtle smoke, followed by a concentrated blast of tangy fruit and savoury spice on the palate. It is full-bodied at 96 proof, with a clean, vivid finish.
