Madre Mezcal
(0.75l, 45%)
Traditional Oaxaca Mezcal thought up by two surfer dudes.
Childhood friends and surfer dudes from Colorado, Tony Farfalla and Stefan Wigand, knew they wanted to share their love for Mezcal and the Oaxaca region. Just outside San Dionisio, the ancient town surrounded by clean air and water, they found a family of mezcaleros and decided to produce a truly personal and unique Mezcal. The Morales family works together day in, day out, to create the Spirit following traditional recipes and methods. Jose, his father and his brothers cut the Agave plants, while his mother blesses them before cooking them in the earth. His wife plants new Agaves and a gaggle of uncles keeps an eye on the distillation process. The Madre Mezcal recipe was three years in the making with the Family crossing every T and dotting every I in it.
Madre Mezcal, an artisanal Spirit handmade in the valley of Oaxaca, is made with 70% Agave Espadin and 30% Agave Cuishe. Jose Garcia Morales and his folks roast them in an earthen pit and use wild yeast for fermentation. Family’s ancient copper still produces a unique Spirit with lovely Agave flavors and aromas, accompanied by warm and peppery notes. It’s a fantastic place to start your Mezcal journey with its approachable flavor profile.
