Macurichos Puntas Ensamble (Benigno Sánchez Gatica) Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca Ancestral Mezcal (750ml)

Notes

See Product Details

Produced in Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca by Maestro Mezcalero Benigno Sánchez Gatica in 2014 from a field blend of Coyote (A. lyobaa), Tepeztate (A. marmorata), and Blanco (A. americana). Cooked in a conical earthen pit oven and milled using a horse-drawn stone tahona. Fermentation is completed naturally in oak tinas (vats). It was double distilled in copper pots and the heads of the run kept by the distillery and rested in glass for 9 years before bottling at 65% ABV. This is REAL puntas. Puntas are the high-ABV "heads" of the distillation run, the first cut which comes off the still. There is a growing array of puntas available on the market, but we've never seen anything like this. A unique micro-batch blend, super concentrated past 120 proof, and distilled from three incredibly uncommon agave: Coyote (the wild hybrid of A. karwinskii and A. potatorum, or Madrecuishe and Tobala) mixed with massive and ancient Tepeztate, and the increasingly rare maguey Blanco (a distinctive subspecies of A. americana). This gem is sure to excite and inspire, and it will not be repeated.
