The agave is roasted in a pit oven with black oak and double-distilled in a ceramic still.
Tasting Notes
Nose: The aroma is dominated by a big, sweet agave punch and tropical fruit undertones that add depth and richness. Towards the end, you'll detect the scent of wet clay and earth, grounding the bouquet and providing a sense of balance.
Palate: The spirit offers a pleasant, oily mouthfeel that coats the palate. The initial flavor is a peppery burn that gives way to bright, zesty lemon notes. As you continue to savor the drink, you'll discover a slight touch of sweet and sour funk, which adds an intriguing complexity to the tasting experience.
Finish: The finish is characterized by lingering pepper heat, lemon zest, and subtle funkiness on the palate. With time, the flavors open up, revealing even more nuances and making each sip more enjoyable than the last.
This agave spirit is a treat for those who appreciate a dynamic and multifaceted tasting experience, with its ever-evolving flavors inviting you to explore its depths and intricacies.
Customer Services is our #1 Job
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.
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.
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.
