About this mezcal

La Tierra de Acre Espadin is made with 7-8 year old Maguey Espadin (Agave angustifolia). Maestro Mezcalero Honorato Cruz mills the agave by tahona, ferments with spring water, and double distills in a 250 liter copper still.

La Tierra de Acre Mezcal

La Tierra de Acre Mezcal began as a bootleg operation in 2017 (originally called Acre Mezcal), tucked away in the foothills of San Jose del Cabo at Acre Baja, a lush sanctuary set on 25 acres of greenery. The brand is related to the Acre Baja resort, which features elegant treehouses, organic farms, private event spaces, and an award-winning bar and restaurant.

In 2021, the brand raised money via the StartEngine platform at a $10 million pre-money valuation. Later they rebranded from Acre Mezcal to La Tierra de Acre Mezcal

Batch A-21 at 40%
Not good.
Aroma with lots of smoke and burnt rubber (no, not in a good way).
It tastes like spicy, hot cherry cough syrup.
The finish continues with the bitter cough syrup.

Lote: AC-01
Slightly green smell. Some buttery notes as well. Perhaps floral. Taste carries through with some classic espadin notes with a classic smoked agave…bit too smoky. Nothing complex or unique here. This could be great for cocktails or a sipper in a pinch. Overall not bad at all but nothing memorable.
