History
Del Maguey Wild Papalome Mezcal is a unique spirit that is a part of the Vino de Mezcal series, showcasing the rich heritage of mezcal production in Mexico. This mezcal is derived from the Del Maguey Wild Papalome agave, also known as Cupreata or Tobala, which is revered for its distinct flavor profile. The production process is traditional and labor-intensive, where the agave hearts are roasted in the earth and buried for two weeks to develop their deep, earthy flavors. After roasting, the agave is ground using a horse-drawn stone mill, a practice that honors centuries of craftsmanship. The fermentation process relies on airborne microbes, contributing to the mezcal's unique characteristics, and it is then double-distilled to enhance its complexity. The result is a spirit that is earthy, dark, and delicious, capturing the essence of its origins.
