Division Bell

Phil Ward's mezcal equal-parts creation from Death & Co uses smoke, orange-herbal Aperol, and cherry Maraschino with lime in a Last Word variation that turns earthy and mysterious. The Division Bell is the perfect vehicle for mezcal's volcanic character in a bright, citrus-forward format.
