About this bottle

Mezcales de Leyende Guerrero Mezcales is a mezcal from Mexico in our spirits range. It is bottled at 45% ABV, in a 750 ml bottle. Producer tasting notes — on the nose: The lingering scent of burnt sagebrush and hay, smoked pine lumber and wet ashes fill the air; on the palate: Aromas of cactus milk, bitter greens, bell pepper, olive brine and yogurt are just beneath that smoke. Quite sweet on the tongue and true to the nose with a very lively mouthfeel and pleasant bitterness; finish: The finish is very long and sweet with a gentle heat and bitterness while the smoke lingers through the whole experience.

Serving & pairing

Serve neat at room temperature with an orange slice. Its smoke works with grilled vegetables, mole and salty cheeses.

What is the difference between mezcal and tequila?

Tequila is a type of mezcal in the broad sense, but legally they are distinct: tequila uses only blue Weber agave from specific regions and usually steam-cooked agave; mezcal can use dozens of agave varieties, mostly from Oaxaca, and the agave is typically roasted underground, giving smoke.

Summer garden

A gin I cannot buy on the high street.

“A citrus gin that barely shows up in the States. Spirit Hives listed the botanicals, I ordered a 700 ml, and it became the house G and T. Not cheap. Completely worth it.”
Hannah W.Contemporary gin
Case order

The case made more sense.

“I drink the reposado enough that a single bottle was a habit. Switching the option to a case at Spirit Hives dropped the unit price and I stopped running out mid-month.”
Carlos M.Reposado tequila, 6-pack
Tasting night

Tequila I finally sipped.

“An anejo, neat, orange slice, no shot glass. Friends scoffed until the second pour. Two of them have since ordered their own from Spirit Hives.”
Diego V.Anejo tequila
Rum for cocktails

They said no age statement.

“Other shops would have fudged it. Spirit Hives wrote that there was no age statement and priced it like one. I trust a shop that tells me what the producer did not print.”
Grace L.Dark Jamaican rum
