Mal Bien Zacate Limon
Originally created by Maestro Mezcalero Lucio Morales as a gift to his wife, Agustina, “Zacate” is produced by the Morales family using the same traditional process as their classic “white tape” espadín, with one important twist:
Freshly cut lemongrass is added to the stills before the second distillation, and a bit more is macerated in the finished product for an extra touch of aromatics and color.
The result is a bright and lively expression of espadín that makes a great highball, brings an interesting twist to classic mezcal cocktails, or works as a fun plug-and-play substitute for gin. I imagine great in tiki drinks, too.
Roasted in earth, crushed by tahona, fermented in pine and distilled in copper pots with fresh lemon grass
