This award-winning Scorpion Mezcal Añejo is made in small batches in Oaxaca, Mexico, with a real scorpion in every bottle. Our 1 and 2 year Añejos age in oak barrels of less than 200 liters. Singel barrel bottlings of our aged products ensures premium quality mezcal. The distinctive bottle comes with it's own little Scorpion Mezcal sombrero. Like a fine cognac, the method, age and process determine the smoother, mellower and more valuable they become.

It’s a nicely balanced spirit with a hint of melon flavor. Firm and slightly oily with light lime, cucumber, sea salt and herbal aromas, slightly bitter, leafy finish.” ~MEZCALREVIEWS.COM
