Maker Notes
Mezcal UNION is dedicated to preserving the traditional craft of distilling and promoting socio-economic growth among local communities by bringing together artisanal distilleries and agave farmers. Our mezcal is a meticulously handcrafted blend of agave Espadín and the rare Tobal wild agave, carefully produced and bottled in Oaxaca, Mexico. It boasts a delightful combination of flavors and aromas including a subtle smokiness, notes of butter, mint, cinnamon, mango, herbs, and minerals.
To ensure the sustainability of our mezcal production, we are actively engaged in replanting both species of agave used in our blend. While it takes time for agave to mature, our ultimate aim is to exclusively use agaves that we have replanted, as soon as nature allows. We employ sustainable farming practices to actively prevent soil erosion, ensuring the long-term health of the land and agave crops.
Tasting Notes: Astringent, Dry, Butter, Herbs (mint, pine), Flowery, Sweet, Stone and New Woods.
Aromas in the mouth: The first drink reveals its 100% artisan process with oak woods and mesquite. After you feel the agave caramelized notes, then flowery herbs tones of Tobalá Agave, which starts to turn off the alcohol power leaving a long back sweet taste of Espadín Agave.
Summary of Flavors: Artisan strong body, buttery, artringent, herbal and a sweet clean smoke.
