Mezcal from Sola de Vega, Oaxaca

Sola de Vega is the home of Siete Misterios, the Mezcalero numbered series, and a handful of smaller producers whose work runs herbal, bright, and lean compared to the richer Miahuatlán style. The region is underappreciated relative to Matatlán and Miahuatlán; Sola de Vega bottlings tend to score well in our catalog and price less than equivalent-quality bottles from neighboring villages. The signature: dry, slightly grassy, mineral, with structural carry on solid 45%+ proof.
