Mezcal Madrecuishe

• Mezcal produced in Candelaria Yegolé, Zoquitlán, Oaxaca
• Maestro Mezcalero Vicente Sánchez Parada
• Distilled from 100% Madrecuishe (Agave karwinskii)
• Agave cooked in a conical earthen pit
• Milled using a traditional stone tahona
• Fermented in open-air wooden vats (tinas)
• Distilled twice using traditional wood-fired copper pot stills
• Soft and generous with aromatics of pencil shavings, green herbs, bell pepper, cinnamon, and pimento. The palate shifts gears, offering sophisticated layers of roasted apple, grilled mango, and pineapple with a silky and herbaceous mid-palate that calls to mind tacos al pastor.
• 48.4% ABV (ABV may vary batch to batch)
