Alipus Mezcal San Luis Espadin

Alipus is a boutique mezcal brand that produces six distinct expressions. Each one is named after the mezcalero's hometown. San Luis del Rio is home to maestro Don Baltazar Cruz who is well-known for distilling Espadin in the artesanal style: no machines. This joven expression is rich and full-bodied with tropical fruit and mild smoke on the palate. This is a high-quality mezcal at a reasonable price that's easy to sip neat and wonderful in a cocktail.
