Mezcal is a uniquely Mexican spirit. Known for its smoky flavors, mezcal has intriguing and mysterious variations in taste depending on the type of agave, terroir and production methods used. It is ancestral, inherently artisanal and has been around for at least 5 years. Montelobos Espadin is a meticulously crafted, perfectly balanced artisanal mezcal made to explore and celebrate all the abundant flavors of the best-quality organic agave. Our pinas, always free of herbicides and pesticides, are harvested and then roasted in an underground fire pit filled with volcanic stone for 4-5 days. This is what gives Montelobos mezcal its distinctive smoky flavor. Next, the roasted pinas are crushed under the weight of a traditional tahona wheel. The agave is then left in open-air pine vats to ferment. Once fermented, the liquid is distilled twice in copper stills. That way, we obtain Montelobos Espadin, a strikingly balanced mezcal. Savor the distinctive taste of cooked and fresh agave, honey citrus, nuts and subtle smoke. Enjoy our Montelobos EspadIn neat or on the rocks or in your favorite cocktails.
