Types of Mezcal

Immerse yourself in an unforgettable journey of flavors

  • Mezcal

    • It’s produced industrially using modern techniques like diffusers and autoclaves, which allow processing younger agaves and result in a different flavor.

    • Fermentation is controlled and carried out in stainless steel, which allows for a more uniform product, but less complex in aromas and flavors.

    • It’s distilled using continuous column stills, which boost production but alter mezcal’s traditional depth and character.

  • Artisanal Mezcal

    • The agave is cooked in traditional pit or masonry ovens, infusing the fibers with deep and complex flavors. The smoky notes come mainly from the type of wood used to heat the conical ovens.

    • Grinding is done using a tahona, mill or trapiche, methods that preserve the authenticity of the process.

    • Fermentation takes place in natural containers, which contributes to a more organic and original flavor.

    • Distillation occurs in copper stills, giving the mezcal a rustic and authentic touch.

  • Ancestral Mezcal

    • Following pre-Hispanic techniques, this mezcal is made without modern machinery, making it a product of limited production and deeply connected to the earth.

    • Fermentation is natural and outdoors, taking advantage of the elements of the environment to create a unique flavor profile.

    • Grinding is done manually, using a mill or mallet, which requires a lot of patience and dedication.

    • Distillation in a clay still is key to giving it a mineral and smooth flavor, with an unmistakable texture that reflects the tradition of our ancestors.
