Crafted in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, this mezcal is made from Espadin agave grown for a minimum of eight years to maximise maturity and flavour depth. The piñas are roasted underground in a traditional pit oven lined with volcanic stones from the Puebla Popocatepetl volcano, then double distilled with zero additives, abocantes, or sugars. Bottled at 43% ABV, it’s an all-natural expression of terroir and technique.

Nose: Sweet roasted agave leads, followed by eucalyptus, green bell pepper, and faint peppercorn, with whiffs of earthiness and green vegetal notes.

Palate: Beautiful richness and depth unfold with herbaceous character, ripe tropical fruit, a hint of smokiness, and that lovely agave sweetness. Umami tones and mild oak add complexity to an easy drinking style that showcases the quality of the raw material.

Finish: Warming and clean, with lingering smoke and a gentle sweetness that invites another sip.

Enjoy neat to appreciate the full range of flavours, or serve over ice for a more approachable experience. It also shines in cocktails, bringing depth to margaritas, Oaxacan old fashioneds, or as a smoky base for creative bartending at home.

Perfect for mezcal enthusiasts seeking authentic artisanal production and those exploring agave spirits beyond tequila. A thoughtful gift for spirits lovers who value provenance, sustainability, and the hands that craft what’s in the glass.
