$13.00Mezcal
Mezcal can be made from a variety of agaves. The traditional process of mezcal takes several days. The pina -the pineapple looking core- of the agave is roasted in a stone-lined oven that set in the ground. There, the pina will be smoked for a few days giving it a smoky flavor. Once it's finished it will then be crushed and fermented. The states of Oaxaca, Guerrero, Durango, San Luis Potosi and Zacatecas can call the spirit mezcal
Espadín
Most commonly used agave in mezcal. It takes about 8-12 years to mature, and it can be grown in a variety of farms and wild enviorments
