Madre Mezcal is a certified Mezcal Artesenal, made by hand in the hills of Oaxaca. This is an ensemble mezcal, produced in small batches by various mezcaleros and their families in different parts of Oaxaca.

Madre Mezcal is made with 70% maguey Espadin and 30% maguey Cuishe (agave Karwinskii). The agaves are roasted in an earthen pit, and fermented with local well-water and wild yeast found in the mountain air. Distillation is done in the family’s copper still. 

Madre has a hint of smoke, with a sweet fragrance. Herbal notes of sage, earth, and minerals appear on the tongue, with a lingering floral finish. An excellent Mezcal for the price!
