It's a decent mezcal with nice packaging and smooth finish. I was expecting something more unique given the reputation and price. Not bad, just didn't blow me away like I hoped it would.

While I appreciate the authenticity, I found it quite harsh and the smoky flavor was overpowering. Maybe I'm just not sophisticated enough for this level of mezcal, but it wasn't enjoyable for me.
As someone new to mezcal, this was an excellent introduction. Smooth enough for beginners but complex enough to appreciate the craftsmanship. The customer service team was also helpful in explaining the production process.
This is hands down one of the best mezcals I've ever tried. The smoky flavor is perfectly balanced and you can really taste the craftsmanship that goes into each bottle. Worth every penny for special occasions.
Really impressed with the depth of flavor. Has that perfect agave smokiness without being overwhelming.
From the moment you open the bottle, you know this is something special. The aroma is incredible and the taste delivers on every promise. Perfect for sipping neat or in craft cocktails.
The quality is undeniable - smooth, complex, and beautifully crafted. However, the price point makes it more of a luxury purchase than an everyday drink. Still recommend for mezcal enthusiasts.
You can taste the traditional production methods in every sip. The bottle design is beautiful too, makes for a great gift. Customer service was also very responsive when I had questions about their distillation process.
The product itself is excellent with great flavor profile and smooth finish. Only complaint is that shipping took longer than expected and packaging could be more secure for such an expensive bottle.
