Reading Time:

Mezcal is fast becoming a favorite spirit among the health-conscious because of its purity – it must contain 100% agave by law and is handcrafted the old-fashioned way. Its effect can be described as elevating and uplifting, and, when combined with some of your favorite beneficial local ingredients, can become your favorite summer spirit that doesn’t feel over-indulgent. Fresh and pure with just the right amount of earth and smoke. Like summer in a glass!
