Corte Vetusto Mezcal releases ultra-rare 'ancestral' expression

Corte Vetusto Mezcal has launched an ultra-rare 'ancestral' expression as part of its 'mesquite smoked' craft portfolio.

Only 80 bottles of the 100-per-cent agave spirit, produced in Oaxaca, have been released and will be sold exclusively through Harrods, in-store and online.

Crafted by fourth-generation 'maestro mezcalero' Isidro Damian, Corte Vetusto Ancestral is an unaged spirit made with Sierra Negro agave, a rare sub-species of agave americana which is sustainably grown and harvested on Damian's estate in Villa Sola de Vega.
