Division Bell
CLASSIC · MEZCAL (DEL MAGUEY VIDA CLÁSICO)

Division Bell

Created by bartender Phil Ward at Death & Co in New York City, the Division Bell proves that mezcal's smokiness can anchor a Last Word-style framework even better than gin, provided the Maraschino is kept restrained so the agave character stays front and center.
