La Tierra de Acre Cenizo Mezcal, Durango, Mexico (750ml)   

This bottling is made from 8-14 year old Cenizo agave plants found at lower elevations in the Valle de Florida in Durango, Mexico. It is milled using the manual axe technique and distilled in copper pot stills. Very terroir driven, the nose is complex and the palate has a clean finish. Dry and earthy texture, like the desert dust beneath your feet. There are hints of sweetness on the nose reminiscent of fresh baked maple sugar cookies. The palate has green peppery notes of fresh chopped jalapeños with a subtle savory finish. 45% ABV

Producer Notes - "We set out to source the best small-batch Mezcaleros, who for generations have been sustainably perfecting their craft throughout the best mezcal producing regions of Mexico and share their creations with our guests at the Acre Baja resort, a lush sanctuary set on 25 acres of abundant greenery tucked away in the foothills of San Jose del Cabo. The result is a collection of four award-winning mezcals (Espadín, Cenizo, Tobalá, Tepeztate) showcasing the versatility and the beauty of the agave plant. Handcrafted in Oaxaca and Durango, Mexico, every bottle of La Tierra de Acre Mezcal is an uncompromising reflection of the creator's heritage and the land from which they came. La Tierra de Acre Mezcal is an excuse to gather, catch up with old friends, and meet new ones. It happened every night at the Acre Resort, making us realize that we could no longer keep this magical spirit a secret. La Tierra de Acre Mezcal was made to be shared, and we are delighted to be sharing this beautiful selection of mezcals with YOU!"
