Everything happens in Ejutla La Noria, where the agave is grown, harvested, crushed, fermented and distilled: the piñas roast 60 hours in a traditional earthen oven fired with huamúchil wood, rest an hour, and are crushed by a bull-pulled stone wheel. Fermentation runs 8 to 10 days in wooden cypress tanks before distillation in a copper pot still with a refrescador, in batches of about 5,000 liters (NOM 0685X).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA mezcal made for cocktails, it is mineral and bright: citrus lifts the nose with vegetal notes and gentle smoke, and the palate is earthy and dry with green, vegetal, spice and mineral notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe coral label makes it a great gift for mezcal-cocktail fans.\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 citrus, vegetal, subtle smoke.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earthy, dry, mineral.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Green, spice, earth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Producer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaestro:\u003c\/strong\u003e Juan Pacheco Santos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Espadín\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e 60-hour earthen oven roast, tahona, cypress tanks, copper pot still\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNOM:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0685X\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProof \/ ABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 88 proof (44% ABV)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ejutla, Oaxaca, Mexico\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Enjoy It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eShake a mezcal Margarita or Paloma, or sip it neat with orange slices.
