Bruxo Mezcal, a brand born out of a group of friends' love for Mexico and its magic, offers a unique take on traditional mezcal. Their No. 2 Pechuga de Maguey, for instance, is not your typical Pechuga. Instead of using the traditional chicken breast, they infuse the mezcal with freshly roasted agave hearts, giving it a rich, sweet flavor with a hint of smokiness. The brand's name, Bruxo, is a nod to the wisdom and illumination associated with shamans, reflecting their deep respect for the lands of Oaxaca and Mexico. Each bottle of Bruxo may vary slightly, showcasing the brand's commitment to artisanal production and the unique character of each batch.
It’s very smoky, but it’s not as good as many mezcals I’ve tried. Good for a regular drink or for a cocktail, but nothing fancy
Maybe a bit better as a cocktail mezcal…but it’ll do as a sipper when you’re in a pinch.
I personally like to drink them in cocktails, I guess the way it was prepared didnt help.
This is a solid espadin. Smoky and citrusy. For its rather accessible price, this is definitely a better one. It’s a recurring guest in my home mezcal selection
