AFFORDABLE Mezcal Review: Del Maguey

Today we review three affordable Del Maguey Mezcals. Then we try them in an original Valentine's Day Cocktail, Ashes of an Affair.

We sample Vida, Vida de Muertos, and Chicgicapa from one of the most popular Mezcal companies.

Carl created a cocktail that enhances the nice smokiness of mezcal while giving it a sour and raspberry flavor profile.
