The agave harvested for this expression were between 7 and 10 years of age. This is an incredibly friendly expression of Mezcal, exhibiting the light sweetness of fresh root vegetables, stone fruit skin, and white flowers. Distilled in Santiago Matatlán.
Maestra mezcalera Margarita Blas and her son used only older examples of the tall Agave karwinskii subspecies known as Cirial to make this unique batch. While most karwinskii reach maturity somewhere between 12 and 18 years, the agave employed here range from 18 to 22. Dense with mature sugar and fiber and a complexity that speaks to its age, this mezcal offers fascinating structure. A contemplative journey from bold fruit to dry heat, with a deep earthy finish
