MEZCALOSFERA 2021 VERDE - AGEO CORTÉZ | 500 ML

Ageo Cortés is a 29 year old Maestro Mezcalero from Miahuatlán, Oaxaca, Mexico. He is a third-generation maestro. He makes mezcal with his father, uncles, and cousins- just the way traditional agave spirits had been made for centuries, respecting the historical taste, andmade according to his community's traditional recipes. Something unique about this particular expression is that Ageo decided to do only one distillation, instead of the typical two that most Maestros do. If you are looking for something different and surprising, this may be the right one to start with. Thank you Ageo for this one distillation piece of art!
