About this bottle

This Mexicáno mezcal is double-distilled in small, custom-made copper-lined stills. Consistent with all Koch el de Oaxaca bottlings, it is produced in limited quantities using traditional methods and ancient techniques. The single-varietal Mexicáno (Agave Rhodacantha) is a scarce offering, as these agaves are difficult to locate in the wild and require over a decade to reach maturity.

Marcel Kilpatrick 5.0 December 2018

Purchased at Mezcalaria on The Drive in Vancouver on Dec 3, 2018. Not aged in barrels, but it's sweet and somewhat smoky. I really enjoyed it!

Why there's no score

We have 2 ratings for this bottle, and we don't publish an average until 30 people have weighed in.

A handful of ratings can average to anything, and a 4.8 built on three of them looks exactly like a 4.8 built on three hundred. Rather than print a number we can't stand behind, we leave it blank until the count is there. The critic score above comes from a panel rather than the crowd, so it stands on its own.
