Mezcal Joven 70cl - Ilegal represents the pure essence of a handcrafted distillate emblematic of Mexican tradition, produced in the Oaxaca region, the historic heart of mezcal production. This young mezcal, made exclusively from espadín agave, is distilled using ancestral methods that preserve its authentic identity and rustic character.
On the nose, it releases intense scents of smoke, sweet smoke, aromatic herbs, and mineral nuances that evoke the volcanic soil from which it originates. On the palate, it is enveloping and complex, with notes of caramel, black pepper, and slightly toasted touches, typical of slow cooking in stone ovens. The finish is long and warm, leaving a suggestion of primordial genuineness.
It pairs perfectly with traditional Mexican dishes, such as tacos al pastor or grilled meats, but is also extraordinary when sipped neat, to fully appreciate its craftsmanship and ancestral charm.
