Ilegal Mezcal Añejo (80 Proof, 1+ Year, Espadin Agave)
80 proof 1 year Mezcal Ilegal Oaxaca, Mexico $90–$110
Nose

Herbal with big vanilla, smoky but less pronounced than expected, cleaner nose overall

Palate

Satiny, creamy texture, vanilla cream note, light caramel, slight hint of medicinal note on the tail end, smooth and evenly balanced

Finish

Long and lingering with good texture

Very good
A handcrafted mezcal with impressive balance and a creamy mouthfeel that drinks smooth and sophisticated, making it an excellent beach sipper.
