Mezcal Field Blend Tepeztate Cuishe Espadn
  • Mezcal produced in Candelaria Yegolé, Zoquitlán, Oaxaca
  • Maestro Mezcalero Romulo Sánchez Parada
  • Made from a blend of Tepextate (A. marmorata), Cuishe (A. karwinskii), and Espadín (A. angustifolia)
  • Cooked in a traditional earthen pit oven
  • Milled using a traditional stone tahona 
  • Open-air, spontaneously fermented in pine and cypress vats (tinas) using river water
  • Distilled twice using copper pot stills 
  • An initial wave of menthol, lemongrass, and sugarcane gives way to an oscillating presence of hazelnut, pear, and nopales with a lingering, prickly texture
  • 51.5% ABV

This one-time-only bottling is a blend of three different varieties of agave grown in the Sanchez family nursery.
