About this bottle

Espíritu Lauro mezcals are produced from agave that is crushed and allowed to ferment naturally without the addition of yeast. The spirit is made from a combination of Espadín and Karwinskii of San Martín agave, harvested after maturing for 6 to 8 years. This reposado expression is aged for 3 to 4 months in previously used whiskey barrels that are re-charred and scraped prior to maturation.

Brycen Brannon 4.0

The aroma of this spirit is more akin to a reposado tequila than most mezcals. Notes of vanilla, caramel, orange, earth, agave, and just a whisper of smoke. On the palate, it's more mezcal, with considerably more smoke, earth, caramel, and some wood.

Theron Zheng 5.0

Nice smoke, good agave, and a bit of oak. A touch of vanilla and cinnamon are detected. A solid, well-executed tequila that's enjoyable.
