If there’s one thing I love pairing with mezcals, it’s chocolate. When you find a great quality mezcal that can hold it’s own against a dark chocolate, pair it. The flavor combinations will open your palate to a whole new world of flavorful delights. Here are just a few suggestions for pairing with the Scorpion Mezcal Sampler Box.
