Mezcal cocktails from Rooster RojoFestive Elegance
Rooster Rojo Mezcal, the keenly awaited new Mezcal, is now available in the UK through its distributor Amber Beverage UK.
The brand, wholly owned by Amber Beverage Group, is a perfectly balanced, high-quality premium liquid, suitable for top bars, clubs, restaurants, and hotels.
This is a high-end liquid that, as a guide, will command an RRP of around £45 per 70cl bottle, which is a very reasonable price for a Mezcal of such excellence.
Agave spirits are on a significant upward trajectory, and Rooster Rojo Mezcal offers an expanded opportunity to sell agave spirits and bring more consumers into the category. Mezcal is artisanal, ultra-premium spirit and, enriched with smoky flavours very much on-trend, this Mezcal is an important new entrant into a fast-growing category that helps venues add another dimension to their menus.
The Global Brand Ambassador for Rooster Rojo Mezcal, Ansis Ancovs, has been inspired by this finely made new liquid and has created two delicious recipes to help your venue elevate your cocktail offering this festive season.
