Monte Alban Mezcal




Monte Alban has great complexity with an earthy array of flavors. Exclusively produced in the Oaxaca region of Mexico, Monte Alban is double-distilled using a unique process developed by the Aztecs over 500 years ago. Monte Alban has a pale straw hue and pungent spice, wood and mineral aromas. A rounded, supple start leads to a smooth, medium-bodied, exotically peppery finish.
