Standard Spirit Distillery Wormwood Agave

Description

Using a Whole Agave, hearts and leaves, and smoking it with pineapple and pumpkin seeds we have created something new here. An agave spirit with similarities to tequila and mezcal but distinctly wormwood influenced with a corn thin mash fermentation. There is a balance with the smoothness of a tequila and finish of smoky mezcal, the wormwood rounds out the spirit while creating a complex front, middle and finish. We brought up whole agave from Texas to make this limited release. Spicy fresh cut pepper notes come through on the nose and are balanced with a deeper smooth body and a smokier finish, a distinct variation on agave spirits.
