Mezcal Vago Espadín by Joel Barriga 750ml

Family of Aquilino, Joel Barriga produces his mezcals in the high desert oasis of Hacienda Tapanala, just an hour from Aquilino’s palenque, & situated against rising hillsides. The genetic “mother” of Tequila’s Blue Weber agave, Espadín typically takes 7 – 12 years to mature & is the most prolific species used in mezcal. Terroir and the maker’s hand mean that Espadín styles vary greatly. Don Joel takes a slightly deeper distillation cut, producing a rich profile resulting in one of the brightest, fruit-forward mezcals in Vago’s lineup.
