SIGNATURE COCKTAILS
We recommend using Noble Coyote Espadin in all of our cocktails but feel free to use whatever Noble Coyote Mezcal you desire. Our preference however is Noble Coyote Espadin, which conveys the agave experience exceptionally well.
​
We choose to use the Espadin varietal over our other varietals as our cocktail mezcal because the agave Espadin is cultivated or farmed while the other agaves are mostly wild. The rarer wild varietals are best experienced in open glassware, sipping or kissing it a little at a time.
​
Invite some friends over to share a mezcal. Serve it in a glassware or a jícara, slice up an orange on a plate with some sal de Gusano poured in the middle, alongside a bowl of chapulines (gourmet grasshoppers from Oaxaca) for an authentic Agave Experience!
