The family vinata dates back to the early 20th century, and the Hacienda Oponguio brand was launched in 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike the Michoacán tradition demands, the mezcal is double distilled in a Tarascan-style still. Cupreata, a wild-growing agave of the region's mountain slopes, gives a lively, herbal and green character with a creamy texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHacienda Oponguio also bottles an inaequidens and an ensamble of the two agaves; the Cupreata is the purest expression of the house.\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\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hacienda Oponguio, Jaramillo family\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaestro Mezcalero:\u003c\/strong\u003e Miguel Ángel Jaramillo\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 Agave cupreata\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double distilled in a Tarascan-style still\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 94 proof (47% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Erongarícuaro, Michoacán, 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 at room temperature, with orange slices on the side.
