Tasting notes
Alipús San Juan is made from 100% agave espadin, one of the most recognized and classic mezcal grapes. This mezcal presents itself with an intense smoky aroma that reveals undertones of citrus, spice and a light sweetness. The palate is robust and complex, with nuances of roasted agave, light wood notes and a long, warm aftertaste that leaves a wonderful lingering note of smoke and agave.
Manufacturing
Alipús San Juan is made in a cooperative where several producers share the same four copper pot stills. The agave is harvested and baked in an underground stone oven, and then a horse pulls a wide stone wheel that crushes the agave. The subsequent fermentation takes place in open pine vats before the distillation takes place twice in copper pot stills. This ancient and slow process creates a mezcal with a deep, complex flavor profile.
