Crafted from Wild Espadin Agave
Convite Una Mezcal is made from 100% wild Espadin agave, cultivated in the white and stony grounds of the Zapotec mountains in San Baltazar Guelavila, Oaxaca. This agave takes eight years to mature, resulting in a robust and complex flavor profile.
Traditional Artisanal Production
The mezcal is crafted using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations. The finest capon agaves are selected, naturally fermented with spring water, and free from chemicals and added flavors. The double distillation process takes place in a copper alembic, heated with oak firewood.
Enriched with Natural Ingredients
Enriched with Cochineal (Grana Cochinilla), Convite Una Mezcal boasts a pink hue. This mezcal offers a unique tasting experience with its herbal character, citric tones, and a light, sweet mineral touch.
Expertly Supervised Production
The production is overseen by master distillers Cosme and Daniel Hernández Martínez, ensuring the highest standards of quality. The agave is ground using a horse-drawn mill and cooked in a cone-shaped stone oven, preserving the ancestral legacy in each bottle.
Tasting Notes and Aroma
Convite Una Mezcal presents a robust and complex profile with herbal tones and a honey aroma. The soft aftertaste of tejocote adds a unique finishing touch to this exceptional spirit.
