Bad Good - Azulín (Ramos)

A very special batch. This is the first time Victor Ramos has had enough azulín at one time to make a pure batch from the nearly extinct varietal of A. americana. A close relative of the more familiar arroqueño, sierrudo and sierra negra, azulín is notable for its sweetness.

Victor and his son Emanuel are the 3rd and 4th generations of the Ramos family to produce mezcal in the Miahuatlán district of Oaxaca. They are related to the neighboring Cortes Family by way of Victor’s wife (Emanuel’s mother), Cleotilde, whose sister Cesilia is married to Felipe.
