The piñas are split and cooked for four to six days in six-ton earthen pits lined with volcanic rock, cooled for a day and crushed one ton at a time by a horse-drawn tahona, then fermented for two to eight days, depending on the season, before distillation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBalanced and elegant, it offers tamarind, pomegranate, banana and mango, with fresh herbal mint, dried oregano and thyme. Delicate smoke, hints of liquorice and mineral nuances lead to a long, silky finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA smooth introduction to mezcal, it makes a fine gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnjoy it neat, over ice, or as a smoky twist in a favourite cocktail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMezcal is made by roasting agave hearts, traditionally in earthen pits, then crushing, fermenting and distilling them, a process that gives the spirit its characteristic smoky depth. Each agave variety and each village brings its own character, which is why enthusiasts love exploring small-batch bottlings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMezcal and other agave spirits are traditionally sipped from a copita or a small clay cup, in small sips, often alongside orange slices dusted with sal de gusano. Many are made in tiny batches by individual families, so each bottle is a snapshot of a particular place, agave and season.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFruit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tamarind, pomegranate, banana and mango.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHerbs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mint, oregano and thyme.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Delicate smoke, liquorice and minerality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Casamigos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mezcal Joven, 100% espadín\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e Espadín, 8-9 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earthen pit roast, horse-drawn tahona\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Oaxaca, Mexico\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnjoy it neat, over ice or in a smoky margarita.
