How do you drink Lobos 1707 Mezcal Artesanal?
Lobos 1707 Mezcal Artesanal shines when sipped neat or with a single large ice cube to appreciate its complex smoky profile, though it also adds depth to agave-based cocktails. Its bold character makes it an excellent choice for cooler evenings or pairing with rich, grilled meats and spicy dishes that can stand up to its intense flavors.
Nose: Intense smoke reminiscent of a campfire, followed by earthy agave notes. Hints of charred wood and roasted peppers mingle with subtle citrus peel and a touch of minerality.
Palate: Bold and robust, with a smoky entrance that coats the tongue. Rich flavors of roasted agave emerge, accompanied by black pepper and a slight vegetal character. Notes of leather and dark chocolate add depth, while a subtle sweetness reminiscent of cooked pineapple provides balance.
Finish: Long and warming, with lingering smoke and spice. The smokiness gradually fades, revealing hints of citrus zest and a pleasant herbaceous quality. A gentle heat reminiscent of white pepper persists, leaving a satisfying warmth in the throat.
Lobos 1707 Mezcal Artesanal is crafted using traditional Oaxacan methods, with Espadín agave hearts roasted in an open, conical fire pit before being ground in an Egyptian stone mill. This unique combination of ancient techniques imparts a deep smokiness and complex flavor profile to the mezcal, while the stone milling process helps retain the agave's natural oils and aromatics.
