It’s got a good mix of smoky and sweet flavors, which makes it pretty easy to drink, especially if you’re not used to mezcal
It’s definitely better than the espadin by Dos Hombres, but in the world of Tobalas, it’s in the bottom 50%. For a celebrity brand, it’s not “that bad.” But with all the quality mezcal out there, I would probably look elsewhere.
I would put it in the same category as 400 conejos. It’s one of the most commercialized and recognizable brands, but that doesn’t mean it’s very good. I think of Dos Hombres in the same light as I would think of Budweiser and Coors in the beer world. It’s not gonna blow your socks off but will definitely get your feet wet.
This mezcal gets a lot of bad rep from the mezcal community. It’s not the best mezcal out there, but what do you expect from a celebrity product? It’s ok, quite smoky, of course not comparable to a Jolgorio, Real Minero, etc. I’ve had many better mezcals, but I’ve also
had worse tbh.
I bought this mezcal on a whim, and it turned out to be a great decision. It’s got a nice balance of sweetness and smokiness, which I appreciated.
