Madre Mezcal Ensamble
A harmonious blend of two distinct agave types unveils the hidden flavors typically masked by the smokiness in mezcal. This artisanal spirit celebrates the agave's earthy and natural characteristics, offering a unique sensory journey for your palate.
Crafted using centuries-old traditional processes, every drop of Madre Mezcal embodies the authentic flavors of the agave and the rich terroir from which it originates. With a more subtle smokiness than other mezcals, Madre allows you to explore a captivating array of sweet and mineral flavors, accentuated by delicate hints of sage.
TASTING NOTES
- Appearance: Crystal clear with a subtle silver luminosity that catches the light beautifully. Nose: An inviting bouquet where traditional mezcal smoke presents as a gentle whisper rather than a shout. Fresh agave notes emerge prominently, accompanied by wild herbs, particularly sage. Earthy mineral components mingle with delicate citrus zest and a hint of green apple.
- Palate: The harmonious marriage of two distinct agave varietals delivers remarkable complexity. The initial impression offers sweet roasted agave and fresh rain on stone. Mid-palate reveals layers of white pepper, honeydew melon, and dried herbs. The smoke element remains pleasantly restrained, allowing the terroir's true character to shine through.
- Finish: Medium-long with lingering notes of subtle vanilla, dried sage, and a gentle mineral quality. The farewell is clean and inviting, leaving a hint of sweet agave and white floral notes.
- Food Pairings: Excellent alongside citrus-marinated seafood, grilled vegetables with fresh herbs, or artisanal cheeses. Its versatility shines in cocktails that emphasize its herbal and mineral characteristics.

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.
