You might not be familiar with Vamonos Riendo Mezcal. It’s the “new kid” on the block that delivers a unique flavor profile that is challenging traditional mezcals.
Vamonos Riendo is an artisanal mezcal that brings together ancient techniques and artistry from multiple Oaxacan communities, to create an extraordinary handcrafted spirit.
Experience the fresh fruit, honey, and herbal aroma with a subtle black oak smokiness. On the palate, taste a medley of melon, pineapple, grapefruit, and mandarin balanced by the sweetness of cocoa with notes of mint and anise. Vamanos Riendo winds up with a long velvety smooth finish of caramel with a tantalizing citrus bite.
Once you taste Vamonos Riendo Mezcal –whether in a cocktail or a shot glass, your tastebuds (and your cocktail) will taste wickedly different thanks to a fruity presentation that is changing how people perceive mezcal!
While I want to tell you about how great Vamonos Riendo is, I am featuring the cocktails first because the cocktail recipes will definitely capture your attention. Nothing will make you want to try Vamonos Riendo than the cocktail recipes and photos I have featured! So let’s get this party started!!…
I LOVE this bottle. It’s colorful, interesting, and will definitely capture your attention (and ultimately your tastebuds too!!)
