Description

Mezcal Artesanal Xicaru Sliver 102° (750ml)Xicaru is the Zapotec word for beautiful. This name reflects mezcalero Fernando Santibaezs desire to share his artistic creations. Using his grandmothers recipe, Fernando makes small batches of Xicaru Mezcal at his palenque in Matatln, Oaxaca. Its natural smoky flavor is derived by cooking the agave in a conical stone oven on mesquite and ocote, woods native to Oaxaca. The cooked agave is tahona mashed and naturally fermented in an open pine vat.

leather molasses and all-spice

the same as its predecessor

bolder character and just enough caramel sweetness and woody vanilla richness to calm the “bite” of the younger rye

Exceptionally well balanced

and an excellent evening dram for warmer months too

this winner of numerous gold medals at the most prestigious international competitions is a high water-mark of quality spirits
