Hedonistas De La Fe Tobala Mezcal Artesanal 92 proof

Hedonistas De La Fe Tobala Mezcal Artesanal 92 proof Smoke forward nose, with notes of tropical fruit. Spice, green pepper, and citrus marry in this full-bodied and balanced mezcal with a long finish. A powerhouse sipping elixir for the discerning palate. Maestro Mezcalero Gerardo “Kaín” Santiago Hernandez greets us dressed in denim and an open-collar shirt. He is a big man. Stoic and salt of the earth. He pours Tobala to the brim of several jícaras, cups carved from the dried, hulled fruit of the Crescentia tree. Kaín is a fourth-generation mezcalero raised in Matatlan. He is inseparable from this place. Carrying mesquite as a boy to the tapada or helping his father in the agave fields, Kaín was fully immersed in all facets of the craft and developed a profound understanding of the blessings of the land.
