Mezcal Ratings and Reviews

Madre Mezcal Ensamble

AR 4/20/22

More than just 'smoky tequila'...ha! Madre does a great job of highlighting the different notes in the agave, providing a much more complex sip than other juice at this price!!

Great Bottle of Mezcal

I really loved this bottle of mezcal. It’s surprising that it’s even mezcal because although present, the smokiness isn’t very strong. Rather this is a very smooth drink. I’ll be adding this to my steady rotation.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Ensamble II

Award-winning for good reason

Espadin, Tobala and Madrecuishe combine really nicely in this Ensamble, with the madrecuishe giving that savory herb and woody note you get from some of them. The clay distillation definitely brings some earthiness, but not overpowering. I love sipping this mezcal as I find something new each time I go back to it. A special occasion mezcal.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Espadin

Wow. If you think Espadin isn't for you, try this. This is an Espadin for sipping or using in good quality cocktails. Roasted agave, creme brulee and mesquite smoke on the nose. The taste is balanced and complex, with savory herbs (rosemary?), smoked meatiness and minerality & a long, rewarding finish.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Tobala

Mezcallover 3/9/22

Truly unique & complex

This Tobala is distilled in copper and clay pot giving it a really unique nose and flavor profile. I find the nose to have a perfumed floral aspect with tropical fruits with a hint of leather and earth. The taste is rounded and has a hint of earthiness and mineral aspects. Delightful

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Ensamble II

Clearly I love this range of mezcal, the Ensamble brought me something very different on flavor profile. Vegetal notes, with earthy tones, just explodes in ones mouth, woulf be great with food.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Tobala

I love Tobala mezcal and this is one of the best. A great mouthfeel, long lingering smoke. I also get great earthy tones and 'minerality' from the copper/clay distillation.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Espadin

Great flavor profile, agave forward, with a nice lingering smoke.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Great Mezcal Which Will Not Disappoint

I'm not a huge drinker so when I do drink I like it to be something I'm really going to enjoy. Rosaluna has quickly become one of if not my favorite drinks. Best of all the price is amazing for this Mezcal. Highly recommended.

Paquera Espadin Mezcal Artesanal

I don't usually write reviews but this time I had to. A really nice Espadin for the price. Definitely recommended!

El Buho Mezcal

Hardabesht 1/8/22

I’ve been drinking Mezcal for about a year now, El Buho is smooth, you can sip or mix with any citrus of choice.
I’d buy again

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Been on the Rosaluna bandwagon for a couple of years now. It’s a keeper to use in all kinds of awesome cocktails. Use lime, and sweet pepper flavors to enhance this killer mezcal. You honestly can’t go wrong with Rosaluna.

Peloton de la Muerte Pechuga Mezcal

Very mild smokiness up front with a very pleasant aftertaste. Citrus notes on the nose and up front. Great for sipping.

Rosaluna Mezcal is my go to

Very smooth Mezcal. Not hot, not overpowering. Just the right everything. Just enough to make you keep wanting more. Love ordering through you guys. Thank You so much.

Rosaluna Mezcal Joven

Rosaluna is Absolutely the Best Mezcal

This is really for me the top bottle of mezcal. Hands down the best. I always have one on my shelf and it is my first and only recommendation for friends looking to discover the mezcal category. No other brand is as consistent, delicious or reasonably priced as Rosaluna.

Rosalina is Top of the Line Mezcal

This is really a smooth mezcal that has a nice aroma, rich taste, and a smoky finish. It can be enjoyed neat or it can be mixed with flavorful juices. This Mezcal really is Top of The Line.

The Only Alcohol I Drink

I was first introduced to Rosaluna by an old friend of mine. In the past I was pretty much just a rum drinker but boy did she change that. We got together one day and she had it at her house and it was the only thing she had. So I tried it and it just caught me off guard off guard. Ever since then Rosaluna is pretty much the only alcohol I drink. I now always have a couple bottles stashed away. That's actually what I'm doing here. Time to stock up and you guys are the best. I've never had any type of issue with you guys. Thank You so much. I really appreciate you.

Corte Vetusto Mezcal Tobala

Not a sipper. Have had much better at this price. All taste buds are different.

ABV had a sticker on bottle that was a higher 44.5%! :( I’m sure it’s a quality mezcal, but I was expecting smoky and a long finish—neither. White dog heat, some interesting retro nasal and an abrupt finish. Lot# D418. Bottle 193/360

The Lost Explorer Mezcal Espadín

Heard about this product and had to try it. highly recommend!

Montelobos Mezcal Espadin

Mezcal new commer 7/17/21

Easy start into the world of Mezcal

I made this purchase just to experiment something new.
If you enjoy peaty scotch, and want to enjoy some different type of spirit, Mezcal is what you should do.
Montelobos is smooth, smoky but not repulsive, with grapefruit juice and tonic water, highly recommended summer drink.

Enjoy.

Recently developed a love for tequila and decided to try Mezcal...like the smoky flavor and would buy again.

Casamigos Mezcal

My expectations of a mellow slightly Smokey mezcal flavor were not met. Smokey yes. Too astringent. Tastes like silver tequila with smoke.

Clase Azul Mezcal

andrealake101 3/10/21

Just damnit...I had *such* high hopes

Okay, so *legit* my favorite tequila on the planet is Clase Azul Reposado.

The combo of delish caramel flavor + smoothness + that bottle looks so damn cool, is all on point. My friend threatened me to a blind tequila challenge & as predicted...my Clase won big ;P.

Now there's this *nonsense* of the mezcal. Lemme be clear: I *love* mezcal (and also sotol). Smoky + herbaceous + magic. But this was some got damn ridiculous *nothing* special idiocy.

I splurged because lockdown. I'm usually a $200 max on a bottle type of chick. Just on principal. But you know...2020, whatcha gonna do.

Let me be clear: this mezcal was *fine*...which is very much NOT what I'm looking for in a $370+ bottle. LITERALLY could've kept the bottle & subbed out for Kirkland Mezcal and *no one* would have noticed a difference.

BUT...you can't...because the bottle itself is shockingly awful.

Okay, to be fair, the cap is *lovely*, and beaded and quite nice. But the bottle is this bizarre (and VERY porous) black like chalk board consistency, but rougher, and worse, and hurts your hand to hold it & scratches *easily*.

I threw it out.

Ya.

In the *trash*.

Did not even turn into a vase. (Did keep the cap & it's now on my current Reposado bottle...so there's that).

It is *beyond* rare for me to leave a bad review. I would've *happily* become a lifelong customer.

But it rankled me so badly that I had ignored the other reviews on google & went ahead with the purchase, that I thought I'd spare you the pain. If you're reading this far...I hope I did.

On that now...just bought 2 more bottles of the Clase Azul Reposado, so...at least there's that ;P. I do still love the company overall, because...complete win on the tequila.

Now, I just need to find the *actual* equivalent mezcal. Sadly....this is *not* that.

Ilegal Mezcal Reposado

fine just as it is, smoldering and yet clear taste, better with a cube or two, best with a splash of cerveza and twist of lime--Mexican Boilermaker!

Madre Mezcal Ensamble

Amazing Mezcal and Cool Branding - KEEP THE BOTTLE

Delicious and unique mezcal...each bottle tastes slightly different but all amazing. Slightly sweet with some floral tastings.

Sombra Espadin Mezcal Joven

Purchased to use as a mixer and was a little surprised that it was also a good sipper. Good value at this price point. Light smoke and a little spicy. Has floral notes. Fruity and a little bit sweet finish.

Tmaculate 12/3/20

After returning from Mexico City I've been searching for a Mezcal that comes anywhere close to what we had during our time their. This one fits the bill. Its quite smoky and so smooth. You wont be disappointed.

Dos Hombres Espadin Mezcal

Sean Staggs 10/6/20

This is delicious. We can't stop ordering it. It's so good! The flavor goes in stages, from a sharp traditional mezcal bite, and then through a wave of intricate spicy tones. I dont know what the hell im talking about but its very good

El Buho Mezcal

Tequilita 10/4/20

Loved it!!!! It’s super smooth and great taste. I’m a fan for life. Highly recommended.

Dos Hombres Espadin Mezcal

Horrible! Don't waste your money!

Taste like charcoal! Worst Mezcal I have ever tasted.

Dos Hombres Espadin Mezcal

Yall paying fair wages??

Celebrity endorsed booze is all the rage these days but making mezcal is significantly more tedious than like, making Aviation gin because you have mexican grandpa out with 5 of his friends hacking away at these hundred pound agaves with machetes. This mezcal is alright but at $61 for an espadin, i'm totally fine paying that price as long as its properly going back to the people that make it

Casamigos Mezcal

Tastes like their tequila, which is mediocre at best, with smoke flavor added. Shame on them

El Buho Mezcal

M Virginia 5/30/20

I need another bottle

I love this bottle! I love thIs Mezcal! My bottle is almost empty. Guest love this neat.

El Buho Mezcal

Hooo Hoooo its smooooth >[8-]]

and just right smoky, very nice neat, or with some San Pellegrino Aranciata and lime juice

Clase Azul Mezcal

Balanced and Smooth Mezcal

This luxury mezcal demonstrates balanced complexity while maintaining an overall smoothness throughout the palate. One aspect that I would criticize is that it lacks some of the smokey nuances that make mezcal famous. A great addition to anyone’s top shelf.

Casamigos Mezcal

Dark and smokyWas not expecting this tequila taste like it does. It’s a clear tequila but it’s a heavy smoky taste. Shame on me I did not know it was like that...,love the silver

Wahaka Mezcal Abocado con Gusano

I have tasted lots of mezcal but this one, this one is just the best. Rich flavors, nice Palegoldenrod color and great value.

El Buho Mezcal

Everything you'd expect, light fresh smokiness, stays smooth and unpretentious. Enjoy neat or recommend in an El Camino.
