El Famoso Anejo Agave Espadin Mezcal is a premium, small-batch anejo mezcal crafted from 100% Espadin agave grown in the highlands of Oaxaca, Mexico. This artisanal spirit is aged for a minimum of 12 months in a combination of American oak and French oak barrels, resulting in a complex and well-rounded flavor profile.
The Espadin agave used to produce this mezcal is carefully cultivated in the rugged Oaxacan terrain, where the plants absorb a distinct terroir that is captured in the final spirit. After being slowly cooked in traditional earthen pits, the agave is crushed and distilled using time-honored techniques passed down through generations of mezcaleros.
The extended aging process imparts elegant notes of vanilla, caramel, toasted oak, and dried fruit, which seamlessly integrate with the inherent flavors of the Espadin agave - including roasted agave, citrus, and a subtle smoky finish. The result is a remarkably smooth and balanced mezcal that showcases the art of barrel aging.
El Famoso Anejo Mezcal exemplifies the craftsmanship and cultural heritage of Oaxacan mezcal production. Its sophisticated character makes it an excellent choice for sipping neat or on the rocks, allowing you to fully appreciate the depth and complexity of this artisanal spirit. It also serves as a versatile base for elevated mezcal cocktails.
