About the Lagrimas de Dolores Verde Mezcal 750ml
This mezcal is made from A. salmiana crassispina, locally called Verde. This wild variety is rarely made into mezcal, likely due to the fact that it is difficult to distill. Gilberto is one of the very few maestro vinateros that works with this variety and is well known for making great mezcal from it.
The agaves are cooked in an underground pit using mesquite wood, rather than the oak which is typical of the other Lagrimas De Dolores expressions. After machine milling, the mash is fermented in in-ground pine pits, then double-distilled.
The clean flavours tend toward the savoury side of the spectrum with woodsy notes that range from crisp pine to fresh untoasted oak with an earthy sweetness. One of the most compelling aspects is the texture, round, fat, and tongue tingling. Exceptional.
