Sourced from the rugged mountains of Guerrero, this artisanal mezcal is crafted from 100% Cupreata agave, a variety prized for its vibrant fruit character and expressive complexity.

A long, clean finish leaves lingering impressions of fruit, herbs, and soft salinity.

Its balance of freshness, complexity, and restrained smokiness makes it an excellent introduction to the distinctive mezcals of Guerrero while offering plenty of nuance for seasoned enthusiasts.
