Late Embers Smoked Sunchoke & Honey Spirit 375mL

375ml Spirit distilled from smoked sunchokes (Jerusalem artichokes) and honey, reminiscent of Mezcal. Greenport NY Sunchokes, just like agave, are made of chains of fructose molecules. In Oaxaca, the home of Mezcal, agave hearts are smoked, roasted and baked in giant pits with hot rocks. Inspired by that proce, we built up our fire in the pit and began roasting 1800 lbs of local, organically grown sunchokes. With the addition of water, local honey + champagne yeast, our fermentation began. The spirit is full - it’s smoky and earthy with notes of pear, black pepper + rose rounded out by the smell of earth, concrete and grass after rainfall and freshly chopped wood.
