Mal Bien Espadín 750ML by Lucio Morales Lopez

Mal Bien Espadín 750ML - Mal Bien Espadín is produced by Lucio Morales Lopez in San Dionisio Ocotepec, Oaxaca. Mal Bien describes this Espadín as their everyday sipper and the “gateway mezcal” they offer friends new to mezcal. The mashed agave is placed in tinas (open fermentation tanks) and topped with water. Unlike nearly all modern spirits, traditional mezcal is fermented by wild yeast, which can vary from one side of the road to the other, and between seasons – one more way that every batch is unique. Depending on the type of agave, the climate, and the maestro’s preferences, fermentation can range from a few days to a full month. Tasting Notes This mezcal smells of roasted meat, ground corn, and pine tar. There are leather, caramelized banana, and barley notes on the palate.
