The mezcal combines Espadín from Tlacolula, known for rich, fertile soils at lower altitude, with Espadín from the rugged, untamed mountains of Yautepec, creating a paradoxical and captivating balance of contrasting terroirs and a more complex, layered profile than single-region Espadín.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe nose offers earth-pit smoke, roasted agave, herbs and the mineral character of mountain-grown Espadín. The palate is velvety and smooth, with smoke and earthy depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe illustrated jaguar label makes it 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\u003cp\u003eMezcal 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEspadín is the most widely used agave for mezcal, prized for balanced sweetness and smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBlending agave from two regions lets each terroir contribute its own character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe it at room temperature in a copita to let the aromas open.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earth-pit smoke, roasted agave, herbs, minerals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Velvety, smoky, earthy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharacter:\u003c\/strong\u003e Layered and balanced.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Creyente\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Espadín from Tlacolula and Yautepec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCategory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mezcal artesanal joven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 80 proof (40% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e 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 with orange slices, or mix a mezcal Negroni or Paloma.
