Description

Wild Barril agaves growing at high elevations supply the raw material for this El Jolgorio mezcal. Their elongated, stalk-shaped hearts contain concentrated sugars and little moisture. Those characteristics make the plant a distinct starting point for a mezcal built around agave sweetness, citrus and mineral notes.

Citrus zest and fresh herbs open the nose. Floral touches follow, with delicate smoke behind them. The palate begins with sweetness, balanced by grapefruit and lime. Mineral and earthy notes emerge next, joined by roasted agave and gentle smoke. The finish holds sweet agave, bright citrus and a touch of pepper, with warmth that lingers.

Sip neat from a mezcal glass, or pour over one large ice cube. Take time with the glass to follow the citrus, mineral notes and pepper through successive sips.
