La Fogata Mezcal Anejo

A hard to find artisinal mezcal packed full of smoky agave flavours.

Very pale straw in color; the aromas are extremely vegetal, with a very faint smokiness that provides an interesting backdrop. The body is big and silky, and the palate, filled with wood-smoke flavors, is surprisingly understated. Some citrus notes also show themselves on the tongue, and the finish is warm and very long-lasting.
