Creama de mezcal is not mezcal. Just as casa 1921 tequila cream is nothing like 1921 tequila. I think I'd hate tequila if my only experience with it was 1921 cream tequila. My suggestion is to throw out any perceptions about mezcal that the creama product left with you and revisit mezcal anew. Mezcal is excellent stuff IMO and gives you a historical perspective of what tequila once was and how far it's come over the last 200 yrs.
