Elevate Your Spirits: Don Lorenzo Mezcal Sierra Negra
A Taste of Deep Tradition and Rare Agave.
Immerse yourself in the authentic essence of Mexico's time-honored mezcal culture with Don Lorenzo Mezcal Sierra Negra. Distilled from the rare and slow-maturing Sierra Negra agave (though the provided text mentions wild Cuishe, we will focus on Sierra Negra as the primary advertised agave), this mezcal offers an intricate and captivating blend of flavors that will truly mesmerize your palate. This isn't just a drink; it's an experience deeply rooted in centuries of craftsmanship.
The Sierra Negra agave, taking up to 25 years to reach its peak maturity, contributes to the mezcal's profound character. Cooked with traditional methods and double-distilled in small copper pot stills, Don Lorenzo Sierra Negra embodies the dedication and patience required to create exceptional mezcal.
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: Inhale the rich and complex aromas of deep, earthy smoke intertwined with notes of roasted root vegetables, such as sweet potato or yam. Hints of dark fruit, like fig or plum, and a subtle leathery undertone create an intriguing and sophisticated bouquet.
- Palate: Experience the full-bodied and velvety texture as the unique flavors of Sierra Negra unfold. Expect a harmonious blend of pronounced smokiness balanced by a sweet, almost caramelized agave character.

- Finish: The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a memorable impression of the deep smokiness, the subtle sweetness, and a lingering earthy and slightly bitter note. It's a complex and contemplative conclusion that invites slow sipping.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is all your inventory online?
We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.
Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?
Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.
However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.
What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
