El Camino del Pensador Espadín is an artisanal joven mezcal from Bramaderos in Miahuatlán, Oaxaca, bottled at 47.5% ABV.
It is made by maestro mezcalero Onofre Ortiz from 8-year-old Espadín, roasted in an earthen oven, naturally fermented and distilled twice in copper alembics.
Aromas of buttered barbecued corn and earthy ancho chilies lead to rosemary, chamomile and honeyed sweetness, backed by chewy tobacco smoke.
It is the classic Miahuatlán expression, superb in Negronis and Margaritas and even better on its own.
