Agua Mágica Joven is a premium, small-batch sipping mezcal crafted in the mountains of Oaxaca from a blend of Espadín and Tobalá agaves aged 7 and 15 years, bottled at 80 proof (40% ABV).
It is distilled using traditional methods in copper stills, giving an approachable mezcal with a smooth mouthfeel and balanced character that captures the essence of artisanal production. The rare Tobalá adds depth to the Espadín, and the gentle smoke makes it a fine introduction for newcomers to mezcal.
The nose is a unique blend of cooked maguey with vague notes of smoke, banana and almond. On the palate it is smooth and fresh, with a slightly salty flavour, as if drinking water from a river, and sweet notes of citrus, caramel, banana, almond and peach. The finish is clean, lingering and subtly earthy.
Presented in a distinctive bottle, it makes an elegant gift.
Mezcal is made by roasting agave hearts, traditionally in earthen pits, then crushing, fermenting and distilling them, a process that gives the spirit its characteristic smoky depth. Each agave variety and each village brings its own character, which is why enthusiasts love exploring small-batch bottlings.
Mezcal and other agave spirits are traditionally sipped from a copita or a small clay cup, in small sips, often alongside orange slices dusted with sal de gusano. Many are made in tiny batches by individual families, so each bottle is a snapshot of a particular place, agave and season.
