Sotol is a Mexican spirit distilled from plants from Dasylirion genus. Sotol sometimes gets put in the mezcal category, but it's made from different plants (mezcals are made with agave) so it's technically distinct. Nocheluna Sotol was co-founded by a certain Lenny Kravitz, and it's made using wild-harvested Dasylirion from the Chihuahuan desert which is cooked in underground pits. The cooked plants are slowly fermented over 5-10 days before being double distilled. If you've never tried sotol before, it has a similar profile to a not-too-smoky mezcal, and this one is a great example, full of aromatic herbal notes like eucalyptus and mint, along with a savoury, mineral edge and some ripe fruit. Try it neat, or shake it up in a cocktail.
