Claridad Mezcal, Espadin

$47.00

Claridad’s flagship Espadín mezcal comes from Onofre Ortíz Ortíz, a fifth-generation agave farmer and mezcalero who’s approach to mezcal production remains rooted in patience, instinct, and inherited knowledge. Dry, herbaceous, and floral with a touch of tropical fruit, Claridad’s Espadín perfectly reflects the brand’s desire to provide clear, exemplary mezcal that celebrates and rewards heritage-driven methods of ancestral mezcal production.
