TASTING NOTES

Since taking over the helm at the palenque, Edgar Angeles Carreño has been returning to a more concentrated, high-proof and historic style of distillation — rarely dipping below 100 proof — making this Espadin a powerful introduction to mezcal en barro the way it was made centuries ago.  This sultry example exhibits notes of sage and pear skin, with a long, dry finish.
