OFFICIAL TASTING NOTES

Nose: Green, grassy, vegetal. Immediate sense of the Mezcal spirit. This quickly dissipates, opening the door to fresh, crisp, Granny Smith apples. Green bananas. Resilient, ashy smoke.

Palate: Bright, herbaceous, eucalyptus. Chalky, mineralic, seashore essence. Olive brine, salty capers and flat-leaf parsley. A weighty, fatty dram with an earthy backbone.

Finish: Gentle wisps of integrated smoke. Creamy, sweet aftertaste. Earthy.
