Ilegal Mezcal Reposado Caribbean Cask Finish
Ilegal Mezcal Reposado Caribbean Cask Finish brings a new wave of flavor to the world of mezcal. This unique expression takes Ilegal's classic smoky mezcal and transforms it with a 6-month aging process in Caribbean rum barrels. The result is a spirit that’s both familiar and exotic, with the earthy, smoky notes of traditional mezcal softened by the tropical, molasses-tinged sweetness of rum.
Expect a journey of flavors: smoke, pineapple, vanilla, and a whisper of spice all come together in a smooth, lingering finish. It’s a mezcal with a twist, offering the perfect balance of complexity and approachability, ideal for sipping neat or mixing in bold, adventurous cocktails.
