Detailed Description
Geared towards sustainability, Maestro Mezcalero Armando Hernández watches over the production. Himself a 3rd generation mezcalero, Hernández relies on traditional methods, handed down by his father and his grandfather before that. This means that the agave is slowly roasted underground for 4 to 5 days. Then, it is crushed by a horse-drawn tahona mill and left to naturally ferment for 5 to 10 days. Afterwards, they are double-distilled using 250-liter copper-pot stills and rested before finally being bottled. This ensamble mezcal expression brings together 2 agave varietals: the cuishe (agave karwinskii) and tobala (agave potatorum). The first takes between 12 and 15 years to mature, the second around 12. Distilled together, the spirit is bottled at 94 proof and features a bold, grassy, and citrusy flavor profile.
