Best-kept secrets are almost always better locked away—just in case. And such is the case with Viejo Indecente Ensamble Mezcal. The secret? This unique blend of maguey Madrecuishe and maguey Espadin produced in the small community of San Isidro Guishe, within the district of Miahuatlán, in Oaxaca, is not roasted but steamed. Why? Jose Lucas, a third-generation mezcalero, wanted to create a Mezcal that retains the delicate notes of Agave. The maguey plants are thus cooked in an above-ground oven fueled by natural gas before being fermented in Montezuma wood tanks. The result is a very herbal, fruity, green, clean Mezcal, with a refined taste of green grass and a very soft texture.
Viejo Indecente translates to "indecent, dirty old man" in Spanish and it seems he's staring right at us through the keyhole. In reality, he's only trying to get a look at the flavorful secret kept inside. Not everyone has the pleasure to get in on that secret. Be one of the few to unlock it. It's the only decent thing to do.

All Tequila is Mezcal, but not all Mezcal is Tequila.
While Mezcal is produced all across Mexico, most of the Mezcal we see is produced in the state of Oaxaca. Interestingly, over 70% of Mezcal is made from the Espadín agave—even though more than 20 types of agave are used to make Mezcal.
Espadín. That word means “sword” in Spanish because the leaves look like a mass of swords projecting out of the plant. Espadín Mezcals are most common because it has been the easiest agave to cultivate.
