"Amaras Mezcal, a brand that's all about love, was founded by a group of visionaries who fell head over heels for the world of mezcal. They're all about artisanal production, with a focus on sustainability and respect for Mother Nature. Their mezcal is 100% organic, and they've got a soft spot for agave, the heart of their product. They've even gone the extra mile by planting over 150,000 seeds of 18 different types of agave, including Espadín, Tobalá, Sierra Negra, Mexicano, and Jabalí. With a portfolio that showcases the effort of bottling solar energy, Amaras Mezcal is a brand that's truly committed to sharing the love for mezcal."
The Amaras Reposado is quite sweet, with lots of vanilla notes and some oak. I am normally not that big of a reposado fan, but I’ve had it with a friend of mine who’s more of a whisky drinker. He really enjoyed it as he is new to mezcal and it seems like reposados are a good entry mezcal for that.
