Verde Mezcal Artesanal NV
The Gutierrez family has been making Mezcal since 2009, using Cenizo which is indigenous to the state of Durango. The core Mezcals are distilled by Fabiola Avila at the Hacienda Dolores, a historic colonial estate that was built in the 1600s that has been painstakingly restored over the last 30 years. Because Durango has large diversity of agave varietals, second only to Oaxaca, Lagrimas has partnered with a number of vinatas. These are small run distilleries that harvest wild and semi-cultivated agaves in remote areas and distill them. Despite the mesquite wood that Don Gilberto Roldán uses to cook the agave, the Mezcal has a very light smoke quality. True to its name, the Verde has a very green flavor profile, with notes of poblano pepper and tomatillo up front and black pepper on the finish.
