Montelobos Joven Mezcal

Montelobos Joven Mezcal is made with espadin agave and carefully crafted by Iván Saldaña. This offers up a well-balanced blend of roasted agave notes, herbaceous elements and a classic whiff of smoke. It also offers a really stylish bottle with a rather ferocious-looking wolf on the label.

On the nose is gentle wood smoke and green bell pepper character, supported by notes of underripe green apple and just the faintest suggestion of blue cheese. The taste is medium-bodied and wonderfully linear, with a delicate mineral streak and subtle smokiness wrapped up in flavours of ripe tropical fruit.The finish is long and fruit-driven, with mango and a more powerful smokiness.  A very classic, easy drinking style of Mezcal.
