One of the harshest terrains on earth, Death Valley was given its ominous name by a group of pioneers lost here in the winter of 1849-1850 while on their way to California's gold mines. Even though only one member of the group perished here, they all believed that this valley would become their final resting place. A rescue effort succeeded and upon ascending from the valley, one of the individuals glanced back and said "goodbye, Death Valley." This designation, along with the tale of The Lost '49ers, has ingrained itself in the echoes of Western history.
The Molina Family has crafted a blend that evokes hints of hazelnut, marzipan, coffee, and oak barrel. Medium in strength, the AMS pairs well in the evening with a cream liquor, amaro, or tawny port. Hecho a mano por Tabacalera La iSLA.
