Luneta Barreno Mezcal

Barreno agave is a rare subspecies of the Karwinskii family, distinct for its spiral structure and unique flavor profile. It take 7-10 yrs to mature. In the sierra sur of Oaxaca, in San Luis Amatlán, you will find the Cortes father & son duo crafting up some very high quality & experimental distillates. The family business is ran by 4th generation Maestro Mezcalero Ageo & his father Felipe on their land for the past 30 years. 

An intriguing mix of flavors and aromas excites the palate and keeps you coming in for another sip. While the nose offers sweet and fruity aromas of roasted agave and starfruit the flavors that unfold once the spirit hits the palate shift to more earthy components like honey and Castelvetrano olive. The finish offers a marriage of the aromas and flavors with tart and fruity notes of hibiscus and hints of smoke from the extended 10 day underground roast.
