Derrumbes Michoacan Mezcal

Two species of agave are used to produce Derrumbes Michoacan: agave Cupreata brings mature fruit aromas, while agave Cenizo brings more herbal notes. Cooked in an underground stone pit using black oak, Derrumbes Michoacan is fermented in underground tanks lined with pine wood which adds to the herbal character. On the nose, sharp vegetal notes: ferns, fresh cut grass and pine needles. On the palate, there are intense agave pepper and sweet fruit to start, quickly calming to a mineral-heavy, sweet tropical fruit juice character. A long finish with stones, camp fires and apples.
