A dense, fibrous, tree like agave which grows around the Mihuatlan region of Oaxaca. Very low-yielding in terms of liquid volume, but huge in flavour. This Mezcal is a delicate balance between green vegetal notes, herbal aromatics and some subtle fruit sweetness. Intense, challenging and dangerously drinkable.

100% wild-grown (silvestre) Agave Karwinskii is harvested at 12-16 Years for optimal sugars and complexity. Pit-cooked underground with volcanic stones for 7 days. Cooked Agaves are crushed using a mule-pulled tahona. Fermentation occurs over 5 days and is activated with wild airborne yeast in open topped wooden cask with agave fibres. Distilled twice in copper stills limited to micro batches of 200L. The first distillation is done with Agave fibres. An 18-25kg Agave Karwinskii will yield approx 1 litre of finished Mezcal.
