Sanzekan Lorenzo Cupreata Destilado de Agave Review
From the coastal state of Guerrero this is a beautifully complex agave spirit that's tailor-made for sipping. Its distinctive profile spans an impressively broad range, from fresh herbs to underripe and tart berries, white pepper, chocolate, and savory leather. While undoubtedly pricy, this mezcal more than justifies the investment.
