Gracias a Dios Gin
Mezcal-distilled gin – a shelf conceit that works in cocktails
Score: 3.0/5 agaves
- Producer: Gracias a Dios Mezcal
- Region: Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca
- Agave: Espadin
- ABV: 45%
- Price: $58 ($$)
Verdict
A decent gin. A negligible mezcal. GaD Gin makes a fine Negroni variant and a passable G&T with a smoky wink; judged as a mezcal, it's beside the point. Buy it for the bar cart, don't taste it looking for agave.

Tasting notes
Nose: Juniper, citrus peel, light smoke, cooked agave
Palate: The mezcal base gives the gin a faint smoky underbelly; the juniper does most of the aromatic work. 45% is gin-appropriate, not mezcal-appropriate
Finish: Piney, clean – medium
The bottom line
Buy only as a gin
