This Real Minero Mezcal is made using the Barril variety of agave, which isn’t seen all that often. The name “barril” comes from how the plant looks – it’s sort of barrel shaped! The resulting spirit is rather interesting indeed, with full-bodied tropical fruit and vanilla notes, joined by a touch of minerals and smoke along the way. Lorenzo Angeles is the man behind Real Miero’s Mezcal, made with traditional techniques out in Santa Catarina Minas.
