ESELO California Agave Spirit is made from 100% Agave americana grown in Southern California, bottled at 40% ABV (80 proof) with no additives.
Under California law, a 'California agave spirit' must be made from 100% California-grown agave without additives or colouring.
Each plant matures for more than 12 years before harvest.
It is smooth and clean, with fresh agave, light citrus and soft earthy notes.
California agave spirits are a young and growing category, as drought-tolerant agave becomes an appealing crop for the state's farmers and distillers. ESELO's ornate blue-and-gold label and tall bottle make it a striking addition to the bar, and a conversation starter for anyone who loves tequila and mezcal and wants to taste agave from a new place.
