Crafted with reverence in the hallowed mezcal region of Santa Catarina Minas, Oaxaca, this extraordinary reposado is a testament to the Arellanes brothers' generations-old craft. Created from 100% rare Tepeztate maguey, this spirit represents the pinnacle of traditional mezcal production.
Our meticulous process begins with hand-selecting Tepeztate agaves, renowned for their complexity and scarcity. The heart of the maguey is carefully roasted in earthen pits using carefully selected wood, imparting a distinct smokiness that speaks to the spirit's ancestral roots. After fermentation, the agave is distilled using time-honored techniques in traditional ceramic and bamboo pot stills – a method preserves the purest expression of the agave's character.
The journey doesn't end there. This exceptional spirit is then aged for 4 months in French Cognac casks, adding layers of sophisticated complexity to its already remarkable profile. Bottled at full cask strength and completely undiluted, each sip offers an uncompromised taste of Oaxacan terroir.
