Ultramundo is an important agroforestry project. The goal is to foster a balanced relationship with nature. They produce mezcal using the agaves from our 24,000-acre ranch in Mapimí, Durango, Mexico´s Silent Zone. This area in northwestern Durango is a hotspot for UFO sitiings. But the ranch where the wild Maguey Lamparillo is harvested is one of Mexico's most rugged and rural terrains. The agave is caponed either by hand or naturally by the animals that graze the land. At least 20% of the wild mature agave found are left to complete the lifecycle: going to see and regenerating their population. Milling: By hand with an ax. Fermentation: Wild, ambient yeast in open-air, in-ground, oak-lined wells for two to four days (depending on the season). Distillation: Twice in a wood-fired copper pot with an oak wood condenser and a copper coil. Distilled by Gilberto Roldán Quezada A Fourth generation Maestro Mezcalero, Gilberto is probably the most famous producer in Durango, an authentic Rockstar of Mezcal. He is preceded by a trajectory recognized for his great talent to express, with his unique style, any variety of agave on which he puts his hands: Cenizo, Verde, Castilla, Temepete' even Sotol, and now with Ultrmundo's "Lamparillo del Desierto," the master in the south is exploring a whole new medium. An exceptional and delicious product of place that offers exquisite quality and unbelievable depth of flavor.
