Destilado de Agave Brocha

• Destilado de Agave produced in Zapotitlán, Jalisco, Mexico
• Maestros Mezcaleros Macurio & Miguel Partida
• Made from 100% Brocha (Agave angustifolia)
• Agave is cooked in an earthen pit oven using a mixture of mesquite and guamúchil wood
• Milled using axe, mallet, and a small mechanical grinder
• Fermented with natural yeasts in deep stone wells and wooden vats (tinas)
• Distilled in hybrid Filipino-style stills made of a copper pot, hollow parota tree trunk, and rolled agave leaf (penca)
• 48.3% ABV (ABV may vary batch to batch)

The Partida family’s most prolific example of Agave angustifolia is downright decadent. With thin, spindly leaves (pencas), Brocha reaches maturity at a spry 7 years, then is left capón for another 3 years in the field before harvest. Silky and rich, Brocha offers sweeter notes of nutmeg, cinnamon, and salted caramel, which combine with a faint lactic note for an overall effect akin to mezcal eggnog. Highly recommended.
