Description

Local mezcaleros in Etucuaro, Michoacán, make La Luna Espadincillo Navideo using maguey Espadincillo. The agave grows in the region, connecting the liquid to the village and its surroundings. La Luna's approach draws on Michoacán's artisanal mezcal traditions, with the regional agave providing the starting point.

Roasted agave and earthy minerals open the nose. Smoky oak and a little floral sweetness follow. The palate begins with gentle, wood-oven smoke before cooked agave becomes more pronounced. Sweetness and earthiness sit together, with a tropical fruit suggestion that recalls pineapple or banana. A rich mouthfeel carries white oak notes and a warm, lightly spicy character.

Enjoy neat in a traditional mezcal glass, taking time between sips. For an accompaniment, try sangrita with its tangy tomato and spice.

La Luna Espadincillo Navideo presents an intriguing and complex profile that reflects the meticulous craftsmanship behind its creation:

  • Aroma: Upon first nosing, you're greeted with subtle hints of roasted agave and earthy minerals. Notes of smoky oak and a delicate floral sweetness follow, reminiscent of the Michoacan landscape.
  • Palate: The taste journey begins with a gentle smokiness, akin to the fragrance of a wood-burning oven, which gradually evolves into a more robust roasted agave character. The palate unfolds with layers of cooked agave, showcasing its natural sweetness and earthiness. A touch of tropical fruit, perhaps pineapple or banana, adds a delightful complexity. The mezcal's rich mouthfeel carries an undercurrent of white oak, imparting a warm, slightly spicy character.
  • Finish: La Luna Espadincillo Navideo offers a long and satisfying finish. The smokiness persists, harmonizing with the agave's sweetness, and finally fades into a soothing, woody warmth.
