729 reviewsLot ESJ-20-01. Pretty clean on the nose. Aromas of green olives, bell peppers, green beans, fabric softener, and carnations. The palate is bright with notes of lime, lemon zest, slate, iodine, flint, and aluminum. There are certain notes in this that seem a little sharper than I’d normally like on their own, but they seem to work here.

665 reviewsThis has a nice minerality which I wasn’t expecting. Overall I’m not drawn towards mezcals from San Dionisio Ocotepec but this is nice. Notes of vanilla syrup, powdered sugar, and lime zest. Not sure complex but has a fresh vegetal flavor which is appealing. It is bright and would make a nice cocktail. Finish is a tad sour.
