Mezcal, Akul (Oaxaca, Mexico)

Lime peel creates an enticing aroma, while sweet spices lead the palate, suggesting cinnamon, black pepper and cardamom, giving over to a citrusy midpalate. The finish is fiery and slightly numbing with cayenne heat and the faintest mesquite twang. Sip or mix; consider for an adventurous take on a spiced gimlet or daiquiri.
