FAST FACTS:

• This mezcal is a truly small-batch spirit, which is made from organic espadin agave and distilled in the mountain village of San Luis Del Rio at an elevation of 8,000 feet.
• The spirit is complex and smoky enough to be sipped, but light and citrusy enough to be mixed in cocktails
• Sombra is Spanish for the word “shadow.”
