Mezcal's assertive flavours stand up well, indeed sit in harmony with richly flavoured blackcurrant liqueur, lime juice and fiery ginger beer

An unexpected flavor combo - if you like mezcal and are looking to push the envelope this is something you should try. Mezcal is the dominant flavor here, with the creme de cassis in a supporting background role. The lime juice gives some brightness without really impacting flavor, and the ginger flavor notes complement the mezcal and cassis (IMO).
