Madre Mezcal
Madre Mezcal Espadín y Cuishe is an artisanal mezcal that celebrates the rich, ancestral traditions of Oaxacan mezcal-making. Crafted from a blend of Espadín and the rare Cuishe agave, this mezcal is slow-roasted in underground pits, crushed using a traditional tahona wheel, and distilled in copper stills to preserve the full character of the agave. The result is a spirit with a complex, layered profile—smoky and earthy from the roasting, with vegetal brightness, subtle floral notes, and a hint of natural sweetness that balances the intensity.
