Mezcal, Madrecuishe, 'Antonio', La Medida

• Mezcal produced in Miahuatlán, Oaxaca • Maestro Mezcalero Antonio Cortés Aragon • 100% Madrecuishe (Agave karwinskii) • Cooked in a conical earthen oven and crushed using a traditional stone tahona mill drawn by a bull (!) • Fermented in open-air wooden tanks (tinas) • Distilled twice using copper pot stills with hybrid refrescadera condenser • This is an outstanding and surprising example of Madrecuishe—green melon rind dances with the thick aroma of fresh peanut shells and traces of sweet green herbs like cilantro. Truly delightful. • 48% ABV (ABV may vary batch to batch)
