Scorpion Mezcal comes to Ohio.
From the town of San Agustin de las Juntas in Oaxaca, Mexico, comes a mezcal worthy of quite some attention...
"Worms are for wimps!"
SCORPION MEZCAL is an award-winning family of 100% Agave distilled spirits, made in Oaxaca, the official and traditional home of mezcal making in Mexico.
All Scorpion brand super-premium and premium quality mezcals are carefully handmade in small quantities and individually numbered. These single-barrel mezcals allow consumers to fully appreciate the true flavorful and aromatic expression of fine100% agave spirits. Distilled in a small artisanal palenque, these mezcals exhibit the same complex subtleties as a cognac, and are far superior to bulk-made tequilas. As a distinguishing feature, all varieties of SCORPION MEZCAL come with a real scorpion in the bottle. Furthermore, these world-class sipping masterpieces are available in 6 types according to age.
