AGAVE MEZCAL
ALERON DURANGO What started as an idea among friends, Alerón Mezcal is now much more. Enjoy this light, delicious spirit with loved ones or alone. As we say in Mexico: “¡Para todo mal, mezcal; para todo bien, también!” This means: For the bad days, mezcal; for the good days, mezcal too! Aleron Mezcal Cenizo 80PF / 750ML Crafted from 100% Cenizo agave (12-14 years old) in Durango, this artisanal mezcal uses traditional techniques to preserve its true aromas and flavors. Developed by 3rd generation mezcalero master Arturo Conde, it offers delightful sweet and floral notes with a light, elegant smoke. A smooth mezcal perfect for any occasion. Soft smoke with candied notes and a creamy mouthfeel layer fruit and a subtle spice on a palette of rich, cooked agave… reminiscent of the high desert just after a heavy rainfall, bright and clean. Don Amado Mezcal Pechuga *Vegan* 92PF / 375ML / 750ML Don Amado Pechuga is a vegan mezcal crafted without meat. Instead, this unique Pechuga undergoes a third distillation with seasonal fruits, nuts, and spices like apricots, wild apples, bananas, clove, cinnamon, raisins, almonds, and walnuts. The result is a complex, rich mezcal boasting bright fruit, roasted nut, dark spice, and smoky notes. Don Amado Mezcal Tepeztate 92PF / 375ML / 750ML Candied lime, white flowers, and vegetal notes of bell pepper lead the nose, with hints of nut, pastry, and light char, plus minerality. The palate mirrors this, adding grilled citrus, sunbaked flowers, and bell pepper, rounded out by persimmon, squash blossoms, charred oak, and minerals. Intricately balanced and hinting at matcha, it finishes delicately with grilled fruit. Don Amado Mezcal Rustico 94PF / 375ML / 750ML Mineral clay influence is quite prevalent with aromatics of ash, crushed walnuts, roasted corn, and spices. Citrusy Espadin agave palate is well balanced against notes of caramel, butterscotch and herbs. Don Amado Mezcal Reposado 90PF / 375ML / 750ML Familiar Mexican aromas and tastes: roasted buttered corn, hints of cinnamon, tropical fruit, and dried chilies with a moderate amount of smoke. Barrel-aging contributes spicier, more vanilla-driven notes. Don Amado Mezcal Añejo 87PF / 375ML / 750ML A regal take on a rustic favorite. Savory mesquite and a hint of cayenne pepper evoke backyard barbecues, while layers of baked stone fruit emerge from brandy barrels. Notes of grilled pineapple and a bright, saline minerality finish this unique offering. Don Amado Mezcal Largo 92PF / 375ML / 750ML
Mezcalita of Salomundo Cocktail
