Trascendente Tamarindo is an abocado mezcal from Oaxaca, an artisanal Espadín mezcal infused with natural tamarind, bottled at 70 proof (35% ABV).
Mezcal Trascendente is made by third-generation mezcaleros in Oaxaca's Tlacolula valley from 100% Espadín agave, naturally fermented with wild yeasts and double distilled in copper stills, using traditional, small-batch methods with sustainable agave practices and a commitment to hummingbird conservation. Tamarindo is the brand's abocado, or flavored, expression: the Espadín base is infused with real tamarind, designed for today's taste for sweet-and-spicy drinks.
The tamarind brings sweet-tart tropical weight and a silky, unctuous texture, while the roasted agave smoke sits underneath rather than on top, with notes of cooked maguey, dried fruit and soft citrus.
The hummingbird label makes it a playful gift for mezcal-curious friends.
Mezcal 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.
Mezcal 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.
Serve it chilled in a copita with orange slices.
Tajín on the rim echoes its sweet-spicy style.
