Bruxo No 1 Espadin Mezcal (500ml / 40%)

Bruxo was created by a group of friends to honour the tradition of artisanal mezcal making. It is dedicated to all those who appreciate and understand the times and gifts of mother earth.

"Honor to the magic of mezcal, the link between what´s earth bound and what´s sacred. Honor to the mysticism of the legends we have found and those we´re already a part of.  Honor to those who live up in the mountains but know and share their ancestral heritage with the rest of the world. Honor to those of us who in the city, are able to transform any given moment into an eternal memory. Honor to the true Elixires, unique mezcales, more special than any other in the world."

AROMA: Toasty agave, charcoal/coal dust and black pepper with light smoke and faint white grapes.
TASTE: Classic mezcal notes include smokey beeswax, new car tyre, vinyl, grilled pineapple, white pepper and hints of tabasco sauce. Lighter than the nose suggests, with a creamy profile of scorched pine, char-grilled vegetable, pineapple pudding, and a juicy finish that edges towards asparagus, rubber sole and smouldering eucalypt in the aftertaste.
ENJOY: Sipped slowly. Take your time and “kiss” this mezcal. Look past the alcohol and unlock a hidden world of agave goodness
