Fuego Y Humo Tepeztate Mezcal

Experience the essence of Oaxaca with Fuego Y Humo Tepeztate Mezcal. Handcrafted in the village of San Dionisio Ocotepec, this mezcal showcases the wild tepeztate agave, known for its sweet herbal notes and distinctive green, fresh, and earthy aromatics. Infamous for its impressive size and slow growth, the tepeztate plant is a marvel, reaching heights of up to 5 feet and diameters of 6 feet. Sourced wild from the diverse landscapes of Oaxaca, it offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of flavors and traditions found in every sip. TASTING NOTES On the palate, it will awaken your taste buds with pops of spearmint, jalapeño, green peppers, vanilla ice cream, and cucumber. In a blind tasting, you'll definitely identify this one out of the group. Overall, sweeter and more rounded than a tepeztate's typical sharp, more defined flavors, this one carries José's signature lactic and creamy taste throughout.
