The ripe agaves, Agave tequilana and Agave angustifolia, are 8 to 10 years old when harvested. Each is cut and then baked beneath rich mountain soil for five days, the slow underground roast that gives mezcal its character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cooked agave is ground with a tahona, fermented in wooden vats for about a week and twice distilled in copper stills, producing a mezcal that balances earthy roasted agave with a sweet, mellow profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSmooth and earthy, it carries gentle smoke complemented by sweet and herbal notes, with roasted agave at its core and a soft, rounded finish. It is an approachable joven for sipping and a versatile base for cocktails.\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\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roasted agave, gentle smoke, herbs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet, mellow agave, earthy notes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soft and rounded.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mezul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Joven ensamble mezcal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgaves:\u003c\/strong\u003e Blue Weber (Zacatecas) and Espadín (Oaxaca)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave age:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 to 10 years\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earthen-pit roasted 5 days, tahona, wood-vat fermentation, double copper distillation\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\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 use it in a mezcal Margarita, Paloma or Mezcal Mule.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich agaves are in the blend?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBlue Weber from Zacatecas and Espadín from Oaxaca.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is the agave cooked?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBaked beneath mountain soil for five days.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does it taste?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSweet and mellow, with earthy roasted agave and gentle smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExplore more in our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mezcal\"\u003eMezcal collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mezul","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68031587713333,"sku":"VWS200429324","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/7367\/8901\/files\/noir-gold-main-29650.webp?v=1793746771","url":"https:\/\/hiddencasks.com\/products\/mezul-mezcal-joven-ensamble-750ml","provider":"Hidden Casks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
