La Pulga Salmiana

San Luis Potosí

La Pulga Salmiana is a Joven mezcal bottled at forty percent alcohol by volume. The nose presents notes of lemon-lime candy, thyme, rosemary, and new leather. On the palate, the spirit feels soft and smooth with flavors of grapefruit and a hint of simple syrup. It offers a lingering warmth that remains delicate and inoffensive throughout the finish. This expression is very clean, yet it carries an almost antiseptic character that sets it apart from heavier profiles. Its low alcohol content makes it approachable for those who prefer lighter agave spirits.
