The Story Behind The The Monte + Mezcal "M + M"

Mezcal Derrumbes Oaxaca’s minerality, delicate fruitiness, and light smokiness create the perfect foundation for this cozy cocktail. Combined with Amaro Montenegro's bitter orange, clove, and nutmeg notes, you’ll be ready to ring in the season’s greetings. Garnish with lemon or orange peel and serve in a double Old Fashioned glass containing a single oversized ice cube.
