Real Minero Barril Mezcal

Aromas of grilled pineapple, cured ham, celery salt, roasted poblano pepper and a bit of ashy smoke. All the aromas follow through on to the palate ending with a nice citrus note and minerals. D&M Tasting Notes

This Real Minero Mezcal is made using the Barril variety of agave, which isn’t seen all that often. The name “barril” comes from how the plant looks – it’s sort of barrel shaped! The resulting spirit is rather interesting indeed, with full-bodied tropical fruit and vanilla notes, joined by a touch of minerals and smoke along the way. Lorenzo Angeles is the man behind Real Miero’s Mezcal, made with traditional techniques out in Santa Catarina Minas. Importer Notes
