Pure Agaves and Good Causes at the Heart of Mezcales de Leyenda’s Artisan Mezcals

Mezcales de Leyenda is a spirit brand that specializes in mezcal, alcoholic beverages distilled from Mexican agaves.  The company’s flagship collection features five types of agaves, specifically selected to characterize the mezcal regions of Durango, Guerrero, Oaxaca, Puebla, and San Luis Potosí. In addition, Mezcales de Leyenda now offers four limited release mezcals, each crafted to support a unique environmental or social cause, and each distilled from its own agave species and hyper-small mezcaleros to ensure its distinction from other agave-based brands.

These artisan mezcals include the Cementerio Mezcalero, Grandes Leyendas, Mezcales Únicos, and the Reservas de la Biosfera.  The Cementario Mezcalero features the milky aroma of roasted chestnuts and dried fruits with buttery notes and subtle smoke flavor.  The mellow notes of the Grandes Leyendas evoke ripe tropical fruit, orange blossom, and light smoke that are perfectly paired with the rich taste of bittersweet chocolate and orange peel.  The Mezcales Únicos’ is set up for a long, sweet finish with a complimentary blend of deep char, herbal notes, and damp forest.  Reservas de la Biosfera has a sweet, salty scent mixed with notes of mineral saline and peat. With a significant portion of the proceeds going to a specific cause, helping yourself to a drink has never felt so good.
