"One of North Carolina’s first mezcal bars shows off one of its best assets with the Smokestack Lightning mezcal margarita. It’s spicy, smoky enough to give a nod to the capital city’s tobacco and agricultural roots, and finished with a worm-salt rim. For tequila fans, head downstairs to sister restaurant, Centro, to experience additional margaritas with the same amount of flair and local appeal." - Nikki Miller-Ka, Stephanie Burnette
