I made a grocery stop at Trader Joe's today. In the St. Paul, MN TJ's there's also liquor store. I picked up what appears to be TJ's mezcal house brand.
"Espada Pequeña Mezcal Artesanal is a private label product for the Trader Joe’s grocery store chain. It is produced by Benevá Mezcal, an industrial brand based in Oaxaca, Mexico. This mezcal is produced using Maguey Espadin. The cooked agave is milled using a stone tahona and mechanical shredder. It is distilled in copper."
I have not opened the bottle, as yet. The reviews I've read, post purchase, are not glowing. That may mean that I'll like it. It was about $21.00 750 ml.
