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 So far 10 grilled Jalapeños 10 Serrano 2 scorpion 2 ghost 4 chocolate Habanero 3 Padrone 10 of the red peppers 🌶 from the plants 2 cilantro 1/2 onion garlic Mezcal Lemon juice Salt — 2 years ago
2nd Box Chocolate Habanero, Padrone & Trinidad Scorpion 🦂 This Tempranillo has that Washington Syrah nose, hard to believe its 100 % Tempranillo. Great juice — 2 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 — 5 years ago
