Maestro mezcalero Gonzalo Martinez Sernas prefers his spirits strong and intense. Whether by proof or by raw product, his recent batches could hardly encapsulate that impulse better.

This batch of "puntas”—the drinkable “heads” of a distillation run—are sure to set heads spinning both figuratively and literally. Historically considered “the mezcalero’s cut,” this is among the first releases of puntas to be commercially bottled and available in the USA.
