TASTING NOTE: If you didn't know you were drinking mezcal, you wouldn't know it from nosing this one. An extremely vegetal nose with bright green notes of green onion, bok choy, grapes and vanilla, this mezcal is hot and sweet on the tongue with strong white pepper notes. There are some unique whiskey-like notes along with the heat and it has a very dry and very long finish. The San Domingo al Albarradas is a unique and intriguing entry into the mezcal space - one worth seeking out. (Geoffrey Kleinman, drinkspirits.com, May 3, 2015) |
