Mezcal Ilegal Joven Cl 70



In summary

How to taste it

Mezcal Ilegal Joven combines the flavor of viviparous espandin agave with a light smokiness. The pineapples are cooked in a traditional underground oven and placed on volcanic rocks. The agave hearts are then ground using a tahona grinder. After fermentation, triggered exclusively by indigenous yeasts, the must is distilled twice in Oaxaca's Tlacolula Valley by a fourth-generation mezcalero. The result is a mezcal extremely faithful to tradition. The use of mesquite and eucalyptus to heat the oven ensures that the pineapples have less direct contact with the charcoal, resulting in a more even roasting. The result is a distinctive flavor profile, where the agave flavor is complemented, rather than dominated, by the aromas of the smoke.
