  • Mezcal Enmascarado 45

    70cl / 45%

    Mezcal Enmascarado 45

    Named for the masked Mexican wrestlers, Enmascadero is a traditionally made Mezcal, produced from espadin agave baked in earth ovens and pot distilled. This 45% version is diluted before bottling, unlike the punchier 54.2% edition, giving it a rather more vegetal flavour mingled in with woody smoke.
