VIDA de San Luis Del Rio^® is an artisanal, Organic Mezcal from Del Maguey,
at an entry-level price point and broader availability. Launched in
2010, it is highly mixable and has arrived to much anticipated industry
acceptance and high bartender demand. Hand crafted, it is twice
distilled, very slowly in small wood-fired, riverside copper stills to
flavor specifications that underscore its versatility in cocktails.
Another masterpiece out of San Luis del Rio, it has a nose of fruit
aromatics, a hint of honey, vanilla and roast agave; the palate offers
ginger, cinnamon, burnt sandalwood, banana and tangerine, with a long,
soft finish. Viva VIDA!
