The Smoke Label is for top shelf tequila and mezcal lovers

After falling in love with the smoked flavor of mezcal years ago, Founder Jennifer Erwin began smoking premium spirits in her kitchen and experimenting with flavors. She made several journeys to Jalisco, Mexico, and created her dream spirit – an artisan crafted smoked tequila with highlights of vanilla and a smooth smoky bouquet. TSL is for top shelf tequila and mezcal lovers – it’s the perfect blend of both flavors. A decadent spirit with a touch of smoke.
