What are the best mezcal brands?

#1. Ilegal Mezcal Añejo

Looking to sample an aged mezcal? Go for this Ilegal Añejo. They use perfectly ripe roasted Espadín that’s then crushed, fermented in oak vats and double distilled in small copper stills. Finally, it’s aged for 13 months in American and French oak barrels. The result is a rich and rustic mezcal with notes of dark chocolate, orange and sweet agave.
