Mezcal Local 0,7 l 42%

Mezcal Local is a delicious and authentic mezcal, made using traditional methods in the heart of Oaxaca, in the famous Mitla region. This mezcal is distilled from 100% Espadin agave (Agave Angustifolia Haw), which is grown for up to ten years to reach the ideal maturity and concentration of sugars.

Unique production process:

1. Growing and harvesting: Agave for Mezcal Local® is grown under ideal conditions for 10 years. After reaching maturity, the leaves are removed from the plants so that only the "heart of the agave" remains.
2. Cooking: The agave heart is cooked underground on a mixture of oak, pine and river stones at high temperatures in excess of 800°C for 72 hours.
3. Crushing and fermentation: After cooking, the agave is cut, crushed and fermented in wooden barrels for 10 days, where the plant sugars naturally break down.
4. Distillation: This is followed by double distillation in copper pot stills, during which selected fruits are added to achieve the characteristic flavour. The double distillation guarantees purity and depth of flavour.

Tasting profile:

Aroma: Mezcal Local offers a rich palette of aromas with hints of forest earth, wood and subtle notes of smoke.

Taste: On the palate, fresh bitter orange flavours dominate, balanced by rich agricultural notes and a subtle smokiness.

Finish: The mezcal has a lingering, subtly smoky finish with balanced notes of fruit and herbs.

Recommended Serving:

Mezcal Local is ideal for drinking on its own or as a base for various cocktails. It can be served neat, on the rocks, or in a classic mezcal cocktail like the Mezcal Margarita.

Mezcal Local is an exceptional spirit that celebrates traditional Oaxacan craftsmanship and offers a deep and authentic mezcal drinking experience. It is the perfect choice for mezcal lovers who want to explore the complexity and richness of flavors that this traditional Mexican spirit has to offer.
