The 2007 is rich and brooding with good structure and deep dried fruits. Still balanced with a long finish. Soft tannins. A delight. I’m glad I saved it all these years to drink with a steak in my beautiful Sonoma Valley. — 2 months ago

Awesome. Dry and mineral rich. Not fruity, which is great. — 6 years ago

Way too young, but will be amazing in 10 years. Delivered during summer so needed to check for heat damage. Wish I could have cellared it — 6 years ago

Its the Tepezate, one of the smoothest Mezcal’s I’ve had.

La Tierra de Acre Mezcal Tepeztate is a uniquely complex and eccentric product. The agave is harvested from the wild at ~25 years old, and the abundance of flavors absorbed over the plants long life are reflected in the final product. Floral, herbal and root aromas abound, with medium instensity on the nose with the fresh sweet and citric notes. Souced from the foothills around Santa Ana del Rio in Oaxaca, Tepeztate is made from Agave Marmorata, roasted for five days and milled using the Tahona method. 45% ABV.

Didn’t use this in the Chili Tapenade, used the Smokey Illegal Mezcal instead, can’t waste this juice in Tapenade
