100% Agave Espadin

Puntagave Rustico Mezcal follows the traditional method of using underground pits to cook the agave. A fire is started and burns for about 24 hours to heat the volcanic stones that line the pit. The agave hearts are put into the pit and then covered with moist fiber that is left over from the fermentation process. A layer of agave leaves or woven palm leaves cover the fibers and the agave heads are left to cook two to three days. Patricio Hernandez distills this mezcal in Santiago Matalan using copper pot stills. This mezcal has notes of moderate oak and sweet agave with complex aromas of fresh green vegetables and touches of pepper. It has a long viscous finish with lasting oak and notes of cedar.
