Your channel is best when it comes to introductions of different liquors, you cut the bs and deliver the info smoothly and describe the flavors of the different kinds of brands satisfactorily. Keep up the great work, I'm sure you have a bright future ahead if you keep on working on these vids, until you get the fame you deserve, my virtual bartender.
Thank you! These intros are quite a bit more hard to prep for than when I make just a cocktail but worth it. And when I get comments like these it makes me do a “happy dance”. Thanks for making my day!
They way I was brought up is that mezcal is basically the moonshine of Mexico being made “en la sierra or en El Monte ” the mountains. I always loved taking shots of mezcal with my tios it’s a drink I can always look back upon.
I just had a conversation recently about Mezcal with Uncle Pete for an upcoming PubCrawl. It’s a super blind spot for me. I’ve had maybe 3 mezcals ever in my life and I’m not thoroughly impressed. However I’m definitely interested in learning/trying more. Fantastic video Livio. Cheers pal! 🥃
I make a cocktail that is a riff on James Bond’s Vesper. I call it a smoking Vespa. 3/4 oz mezcal, 3/4 oz Cocci Americano, 1.5 oz Beefeaters gin. Stir on ice. Double strain into a Nick and Nora. Garnish with a twist of Lemmon.
I tried their "100% Tobala" and "Minero" too (the same tested in this video).. they're phenomenal, incredibly raw and tasty at the same time. Just ordered the "Wild Jabali" can't wait to taste it💚SALUD
Thanks for sharing. I have recently changed my tasting glass to a stemless cup with a slightly bigger bowl and will try with those. I also add water because I typically fill them 4 episodes a time and need to make sure I don’t get to a point that I can’t do them all :) thanks for stopping by!
I think I want to try the Chichicapa. I've only had one kind of Mezcal, but i want to try more.
That cocktail you made at the end sounds good!
Thank you. I really appreciate that. The cocktail really was delicious!
It’s incredible. Highly recommend.

Love that story! Thanks for sharing your tradition.
Trying with a copita or more of an open glass might get rid of the need to add water to such a good mezcal line up.
I have the vida and the Chichicapa and the small village is fantastic. The vida I use in cocktails but never tried it neat Cheers Andrew
Cheers Andrew. Enjoy those gems as they are a piece of the producers heart. Thanks for watching
I bought the Vida Clasico the other day. Not liking the smokey.

Very nice! That sounds like a delicious sipping cocktail
I recently tried their Pechuga, and it was amazing!
so good! I am so mad with myself because I have a bottle and I totally forgot to put it on the table lol.
I really enjoy a good mescal, unfortunately I cannot get any of those.
Darn. Hopefully more option will make their way soon David!

Awesome. Salud Alex.

Agreed! Thanks!
Too bad you ruined the balance of each glass by adding water.
Lol sure!
Stop with the water. what a waste.
Sounds good enjoy your day
