Yola Mezcal

San Juan Del Rio, Oaxaca, Mexico

NOM-0524X

45%

Agave angustifolia

Based upon a recipe from 1971 handed down from Yola, one of the three women who own the brand, from her grandfather, this is as traditional as you can get - roasted in earthen pits, ground with a stone mill by hand, copper pot stilled, and cut with rainwater.  Light on smoke with citrus, sweet greens, and butterscotch notes.
