Their California-based brand partners with six maestros mezcaleros, and a portion of the brand's stock is pledged to a community nonprofit for the families who make the mezcal. A QR code on each bottle links to a video of the mezcalero who made it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Espadín is made by maestro Jorge Octavio Cardaz in San Pablo Etla, Oaxaca. Part farmer and part botanist, Jorge combines tradition with science, having built his palenque next to a plant tissue laboratory, and he uses only artisanal methods. The mezcal opens with bright stone fruit and clay, then shows salty earth and oak-forest woodiness on a smooth palate, with a cooling, mineral finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bottle, set in a stitched leather base, makes a beautiful gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMezcal 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bright stone fruit and clay.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Salty earth and oak-forest woodiness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cool and mineral.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Catedral de Mi Padre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaestro Mezcalero:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jorge Octavio Cardaz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mezcal artesanal, joven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Espadín\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double distilled in copper pots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92 proof (46% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e San Pablo Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSip it neat from a copita with orange slices, or use it in a mezcal Negroni or Paloma.
