Production Method
Distillation is the heart of mezcal making. Through heat, alcohols and aromas are separated, concentrated, and refined to reveal the purest essence of the agave. The method used brings character, depth, and unique nuances to each expression.
Agave Concentration
We use a numerical system from 1 to 5 to evaluate sugar content. Low numbers present sweet notes, while high numbers offer more herbal flavors.
Bottled immediately after distillation, it preserves the purest and most vibrant expression of the agave.
