Black Bonded Leather Viva Mezcal

Artisanal Mezcal follows a delicate underground baking process that has existed for hundreds of years, but it is only now that it's experiencing a Renaissance in craft cocktail bars and homes around the country. Made from agave, but so much more than tequila, Mezcal's smoky flavor and smooth finish as well as its artisanal, farm-to-table background has made it the new "spirit du jour." This book contains 50 cocktail recipes you can make at home with delicious, versatile out-of-this world Mezcal, containing information about how this small-batch liquor is made by Oaxacan families, and will include tasting notes on almost every brand available in the US.
