Kimo Sabe Aejo Mezcal is crafted in Zacatecas, Mexico, where it matures for 18 months in American oak casks that previously held Kimo Sabe Reposado. This triple–distilled mezcal blends agave steamed and roasted in traditional fire pits, offering a unique flavor profile that straddles innovation and heritage. Though the specific types of agave used remain undisclosed, the result is a complex and rich expression that speaks to the brands pursuit of bold flavor and smooth character.

On the nose and palate, Kimo Sabe Aejo opens with an inviting bouquet of spicy vanilla and toasted oak, followed by notes of ripe banana and licorice. A butter crme finish lingers, giving the spirit a velvety mouthfeel that balances its 41.5% ABV with warmth and finesse. The influence of both the agave roasting methods and extended barrel aging is evident in its layered, dessert-like finish, which appeals to fans of both mezcal and aged tequila.

Ideal for sipping neat or over a large cube, this Aejo also pairs well with citrus-based cocktails that highlight its tropical undertones. While Kimo Sabe’s production methods diverge from traditionutilizing stainless steel and copper stills alongside a proprietary soundwave aging processthe result is a contemporary mezcal with a smooth edge, designed for both newcomers and seasoned aficionados alike.
