Gusano Rojo Mezcal 38% ABV 0.7 l is a traditional mezcal made from 100% agave, and one of the best-known mezcal brands in the world. This mezcal comes from the Oaxaca region in Mexico, which is famous for its outstanding mezcal production. Gusano Rojo Mezcal is produced using traditional methods, with the agave roasted over a wood fire in pit-like ovens, which gives it its characteristic smoky note. Distillation takes place in copper stills, which gently extract the agave’s aromas and give the mezcal a particularly smooth and rounded character.

A striking feature of Gusano Rojo Mezcal is the worm – the ‘Gusano’ – which is included in every bottle. This worm is carefully selected and adds an extra touch of authenticity and tradition to the mezcal, which many mezcal enthusiasts find a fascinating detail.

With an alcohol content of 38% vol., this mezcal has a robust and intense structure, but the smoky aromas are perfectly balanced by a gentle, sweet agave note and a mild finish.
