  Closure: Cork

  Illegal's Reposado has been rested for approximately four months in medium char American oak barrels. Bright gold colour. Initial scents offer vinyl and solvent based super glue. Warming the glass reveals wet tobacco and spicy green apple notes. A very curious mix. The soft, waxy entry repeats the aromas with some smoky incense and candle wax end notes. Pure, soft, warming spirit. Finishes a little short with a roast herb, sweet tobacco and butter menthol aftertaste. Fascinating. 40% Alc./Vol.

  ABV: 40%

  A fantastic entry for those looking to enter the world of Mezcal, 100% Agave produced without chemicals and naturally fermented with wild yeast

  Tasting note: Amber gold. Powerful opening scents of green tomato salsa and pine sap; more subdued after brief aeration as the accent shifts towards dried herbs, mustard and white pepper. Medium bodied with a pure, dry, fresh menthol-like delivery; beeswax and balanced spices at mid palate are followed by a softly smokey, butter menthol lozenge, salsa and pepper aftertaste that goes on at length. Classy and contemporary styled Mezcal less the industrial edge. 40% Alc./Vol.

  Tasting note: Bright gold. New rubber, acetate and furniture wax greet the nose in the initial sniff. Alters course in the second pass with aromas of parchment, dried grass and bitumen. Water like entry follows through to a light, exceptionally soft, atypical mezcal profile that’s soapy, broad and hollow, falling flat at the finish. Uninspired and short. An odd departure from the appealing Joven. 40% Alc./Vol.

  Milagrito Ven A Mi Reposado Mezcal (750ml)

  $2160.00 Dozen

  Sold Out

  ABV: 38%

  A Reposado style Mezcal produced by the Milagrito company under 'Ven a Mi', using traditional methods and aged for seven months in white oak barrels.

  Tasting note: Pale straw colour showing some minor sediment floating in the glass. Opens with aromas of struck match, barbeque fuel and smoked herbs evolving more delicate scents of char-grilled capsicum, brine, vinyl, candlewax and incense after several minutes air contact. A light entry leads into a medium bodied, semi sweet profile including brine, wax and mustard-like flavours with flashes of chilli chocolate towards the finish and a profoundly long aftertaste that fades and rebounds as varnish, beeswax, smouldering pine, lanolin and more. Demands a retaste. Outstanding. 38% Alc./Vol.

  Mina Real Reposado Mezcal (750ml)

  Oaxaca, MEXICO

  Bottle

  $1320.00 Dozen

  Sold Out

  ABV: 42%

  An ecologically-sustainable mezcal made with agaves slowly cooked in a brick kiln without the use of firewood. The steaming method helps to highlight the bright floral bouquet without burning an industry average of 1.6 kg of wood per litre produced. Utilising a combination of both modern and historical techniques, the agave honeys for Mina Real are fermented intact with their crushed agave piña fibres, followed by a double distillation in copper alembic stills for pronounced earthiness and added character.

  Tasting note: [LOT MROK1P] Pale gold. Varnishy notes blow off revealing moderate aromas of grass and light beeswax. Silky and quite sedate with light to medium bodied flavours suggesting wild honey, menthol tobacco, distant rubber... Fairly fleeting, with vanilla and beeswax leading the aftertaste. Elegant but toned down by Mezcal standards. 44.2% Alc./Vol.
