Scorpion Mezcal Reposado
Scorpion Mezcal is the brand of Doug French, an American raised in Oaxaca as a diplomat's son who apprenticed under third-generation mezcalero Don Lupe and has sold his mezcal in the United States since 1996 under NOM O19X. At his palenque outside Oaxaca City, espadín (Agave angustifolia) hearts are steam-cooked in stainless tanks for over two days, shredded and pressed, fermented five to fifteen days, and double distilled in copper. The Reposado rests between two and eleven months in French oak barrels before bottling at 40% ABV (80 proof), and like every Scorpion bottle it carries a real Oaxacan scorpion at the bottom and a small sombrero on the neck. The producer's notes describe golden aromas of lanolin and honey, a soft, round entry, and a dry, light-to-medium body with honey, grassy herbs, flax, caramel, salt, and light spice, finishing dry with honeyed oak-barrel character. The short rest smooths the edges of the Silver while the smoke comes forward a touch, which makes it a good first step for anyone moving from tequila into aged mezcal, and a natural base for an Old Fashioned.
