About this bottle
The Lost Explorer Salmiana is a joven mezcal made from Salmiana agave (Maguey Verde), grown for 12 years before harvest in San Pablo Huixtepec, Oaxaca — again, the age refers to the agave plant, not the unaged spirit. Salmiana is milled by tahona and distilled in copper, producing a mezcal known for an unusually herbaceous, almost minty profile: big mint-chip-ice-cream notes alongside watermelon and candy-like sweetness, with plum, apricot, grapefruit, jalapeño and grilled cheddar layered through the palate. It's approachable and not overtly smoky, standing apart from typical Oaxacan mezcal in flavor.
How to drink The Lost Explorer Salmiana
Neat, in a small glass — this is one of the more unusual mezcal flavor profiles you'll find, mint and watermelon rather than heavy smoke, and it's worth tasting on its own before deciding whether to build it into anything.
