Crafted in San Luis del Río, Oaxaca, Mexico, Mezcal Amarás Verde (formerly known as Verde Momento) is an artisanal mezcal designed specifically to bridge the world of traditional Mexican mezcal with modern craft cocktails. Produced from 100% cultivated Espadín agave that takes up to 8 years to mature, the piñas are cooked using a precise combination of three distinct woods—Ocote (pine), Encino (oak), and Pirul (pepper tree)—in traditional conical stone pit ovens to achieve a perfectly balanced, gentle smoke profile. Crushed using a stone tahona wheel and open-fermented in pine wood vats with natural wild airborne yeasts, the liquid is double-distilled in copper pot stills. The resulting spirit delivers a vibrant, approachable profile rich in fresh herbal notes, bright citrus, and soft, inviting smoke.
Food Pairing: Grilled fish tacos, ceviche with avocado, carnitas sliders, guacamole with tortilla chips, spicy chicken wings, or fresh goat cheese.
Tasting Notes: Crystal clear in appearance with bright, luminous clarity, a smooth medium body, and quick, delicate legs.
Nose: Fresh, energetic, and herbal, opening with sweet cooked agave, crushed mint, and bright lime zest, accompanied by soft wood smoke, green bell pepper, and subtle jasmine floral notes.
Palate: Vibrant and well-balanced on the palate, featuring sweet agave nectar and fresh citrus oils upfront before unfolding into layers of mild mesquite smoke, cracked white pepper, fresh lawn grass, and subtle minerality.
Finish: Medium, clean, and crisp with lingering notes of gentle smoke, zesty lime, sweet agave, and a refreshing herbal warmth.
Serve: Enjoy neat at room temperature, over ice with a grapefruit slice, or as an exceptionally versatile base for cocktails like a Mezcal Margarita, Mezcal Mule, or Mezcal Paloma.
