400 Conejos Reposado Mezcal 750ml

The vanilla and caramel from those three months in oak come through beautifully without masking the smoky agave. It's smooth enough to sip neat but still has that earthy, herbal kick I look for in mezcal. My new go-to for slow evenings.

That three-month rest in American oak works beautifully—the vanilla and caramel come through without overpowering the earthy mezcal soul. I've been sipping it neat, and the finish is just warm and smooth.

The oak really softens the smoke without drowning it—I get vanilla and a hint of citrus right up front, and the finish stays warm and earthy instead of sharp. It's smooth enough to sip neat, which is exactly what I wanted for a midweek pour.
