Little Saints earns mixed reviews: many praise its beautiful packaging and the St. Mezcal’s complex, woodsy–herbal profile that shines in cocktails, while others find flavors weird, overly sweet or chemically, and say it doesn’t taste like real mezcal or deliver noticeable “effects.” Reviews note it works best as a mixer—elevating margaritas, palomas, and spritzes—but weaknesses include inconsistent smokiness, thin body, and polarizing aftertaste; some also report delayed or undelivered orders.
The Little Saints Paloma offers a delightful and health-conscious alternative to traditional cocktails. Its blend of refreshing flavors and functional ingredients makes it a suitable choice for those seeking a non-alcoholic beverage that doesn't compromise on taste or experience.
I got my hands on this product through Thingdrop, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! It's a fantastic addition to my collection and it makes incredible drinks. I'm excited to explore more recipes and see what else they have to offer. I went for the St. Mezcal one, and it was absolutely amazing! Definitely worth giving it a try!
got the mezcal through thingdrop and wow! I'm impressed, it has a slight woody flavor that comes from the palo santo but very smooth. I'm so excited to make more drinks from it!
I was able to pick up the St. Mezcal on a thingdrop and I am a big fan!
Let me start by saying that to me, it tastes nothing like Mezcal. Judging by the name I was expecting a smokey, Mezcal-like flavor but I didn't get any of that which initially disappointed me. BUT once I got over that, I loved the flavor for whatever it was supposed to be.
It has an initial bite—think of the bite you get from a strong ginger or peppery drink. It then smooths out to a herbal refreshing finish. You can definitely taste the fennel which gives it a light sweetness but the real star is the palo santo! Such a unique flavor!
A lot of products claiming to be "mocktails" end up tasting like glorified juice to me but this actually gives some of the flavors I associate with a more bitter and sophisticated cocktail. I will definitely repurchase this and I look forward to other flavors they might come out with!
