The Lost Explorer Salmiana Mezcal Joven Artesanal, Oaxaca, Mexico

Lost Explorer Salmiana is the most herbaceous expression in the range. Made from 100% Salmiana agave, or, scientifically called Maguey Verde, which reaches maturity in 12 years before it's harvested, this wild agave variety is massive in stature and grows in high-altitude, adventurous terroir. It was traditionally used to produce pulque, the slightly alcoholic, milky drink, dubbed "the Drink of the Gods". Double distilled, this extraordinary mezcal bottle features a sweet and spicy profile with notes of green chili, grapefruit and fresh agave after rainfall. The hand-labeled bottles are made from recycled crystal and sealed with biodegradable natural beeswax. This rare, one-of-a-kind dram was awarded Gold at International Spirits Challenge, Master and Taste Master from The Spirits Business Tequila & Mezcal Masters, Double Gold at San Francisco World Spirits Competition, Gold and 97 points from International Wine and Spirits Competition as well as 5 Stars Exceptional from Difford’s Guide.
