Mezcal Nucano Barril

The Barril expression is said to boast aromas of wet earth, with a lightly smoky and slightly sweet green smell.

On the palate, it is described as having a dry, mineral and vegetal taste, with a slightly bitter and intense finish.

Nucano Mezcal says it believes in the beauty of its Mexican culture and traditions, which it shares with the world via its mezcal.

It uses a ‘completely authentic’ means of production, which results in ‘an artisanal mezcal of the highest quality’, made in line with the Mexican culture and its traditions.

The agave is harvested by hand in the region of San Dionisio Ocotepec, Oaxaca, and the brand utilises kernel cooking in a traditional conical earth oven.

The milling is carried out by horses, and fermentation takes place in wooden caskets. It is distilled in a copper pot using a wood fire.

All of this is said to preserve the 100% artisanal ways of mezcal production.
