What is Mala Mía Espadin Mezcal?
Mala Mía Espadin Mezcal sets itself apart with a shorter roasting time of just 4 days, resulting in a smoother, slightly sweeter profile compared to typical Espadín mezcals. Interestingly, this mezcal is ground using a horse-drawn tahona, a traditional stone wheel method that dates back centuries and is believed by many to impart a unique depth of flavor to the final spirit.
Why do we love Mala Mía Espadin Mezcal?
Cocktail enthusiasts will appreciate Mala Mía Espadin Mezcal for its unique 4-day roasting process, which results in a smoother, slightly sweeter, and less smoky flavor profile compared to typical 7-day roasted Espadín mezcals. This expertly crafted spirit offers a versatile and well-balanced option for both sipping and mixing, making it an excellent choice for those looking to explore the world of mezcal with a more approachable yet authentic expression.
How do you drink Mala Mía Espadin Mezcal?
Mala Mía Espadin Mezcal shines when sipped neat or with a single large ice cube, allowing its smooth, balanced flavors to unfold on the palate. While it's versatile enough for smoky variations on classic cocktails year-round, it's particularly refreshing in citrus-forward drinks during warm summer evenings, and pairs beautifully with grilled meats, rich moles, or spicy seafood dishes.

Nose: Crisp citrus notes of mandarin orange mingle with earthy pine aromas. Hints of slate and mineral undertones add complexity. A subtle smokiness lingers in the background, less pronounced than typical espadín mezcals.
Palate: Smooth and well-balanced, with a slightly sweet entry. Fresh citrus flavors dominate, reminiscent of mandarin and lime zest. Herbal notes of pine and agave emerge, complemented by a gentle smokiness. A touch of peppery spice adds depth without overwhelming.
Finish: Medium-length and clean. The citrus notes fade, leaving a pleasant combination of mineral and pine flavors. A subtle warmth lingers, with just a whisper of smoke. The finish is remarkably smooth for a 42% ABV spirit, inviting another sip.
