542 reviewsNose – Rock candy. Rosewater. Hot embers.
Palate – Vibrant oak campfire flavor. Wet stone. Pink salt. A slight petrol note but not unappealing. Long floral finish with a touch of milk and chalk in the aftertaste. A great espadin! Thanks to MLR for the 2 oz. sample, this one is awesome!

Agree with the other reviewers about it being a really nice sipping espadin. Did not catch the batch number, ABV was 45%. My guess is a more recent batch than the other reviewers had sampled.

661 reviewsReally enjoy the mineral-forward flavors of this Espadin mezcal. It is light on the palate while being full of flavor. There is some round smoke with notes of dark fruit. The underlying minerality adds a sweetness that provides a nice balance. I’m a fan and want to try more from San Bartolo!

717 reviewsGreat story and great mezcal! I’m always searching for solid sipping Espadin (It’s not as easy to find as you’d think. There’s a lot of ‘meh’ out there). This Espadin is an exception! The nose is big and floral with some hearty minerality to it. An element of light fruit and citrus aromas as well. The palate carries some smoke, but more minerality and a tough, rugged character. It’s earthy with some hard slate and saltiness. I’m not a boxer, but if I were, I’d want to sip this after a fight.
