Gracias A Dios Pina 750 ML

Gracias a Dios Piña is a mezcal from the same Oaxacan house behind the brand's Espadín, Cuishe, and Tepeztate bottlings, made using the traditional process of roasting agave hearts in underground pit ovens before crushing, fermenting, and distilling in copper stills. The exact agave variety used in this particular release isn't specified in available product information, so treat it as part of the broader Gracias a Dios range rather than a single-varietal specialty bottling. Expect the smoky, earthy mezcal character the brand is known for, with the specific balance of citrus, pepper, and mineral notes varying by batch. As with most small-production mezcal, availability can be limited.

How to drink Gracias a Dios Piña

Serve it neat in a small glass, unmixed, the way mezcal is traditionally poured in Oaxaca. A wedge of orange with salt on the side is the classic pairing if you want something to cut the smoke.
