Montelobos Organic Mezcal is complex. It manages to balance green agave, cooked agave, smoke and a slight funky wild fermentation element. One to serve on the rocks.
"An excellent example of Oaxacan 100-espadín mezcal, brand founder Iván Saldaña has a PhD in agave, so he knows his stuff. Montelobos has a strong emphasis on sustainability in their production and is a must-have for your home mezcal collection."
A 100% Espadin, certified organic mezcal. It's an artisanal production from harvest to distillation; Underground stone cooking, mule drawn tahona, wild fermentation, stills heated with firewood.
Founded by Iván Saldaña, biologist and expert distiller, who works in collaboration with mezcal producers and agave growers to bring together knowledge and heritage. It recently became part of the Campari Group.
All Montelobos range is distilled at Palenque Montelobos (NOM-0156X), Rancho Loma Larga, Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca.
A handcrafted spirit made from 100% agave, this Espadin isn't as smokey as some, allowing for an approachable Mezcal where you can explore the full depth and fantastic herbal qualities it possesses.
QuiQuiRiQui Matatlán is a classic “house style” mezcal. It has a smooth taste with distinct roasted agave flavours and a peppery finish that is characteristic with the Espadin agave.
"As an all-rounder, QuiQuiRiQui probably offers the best value for money in the UK. This mezcal has everything going for it: fruitiness, sweet cooked agave, smoke, vegetal notes and citrus. At 45% ABV the alcohol is able to carry lots of flavour."
