Tequila Mezcal 400 Conejos Espadin Joven

Mezcal 400 Conejos Espadín Joven is one of the best-selling mezcals in Mexico

Mezcal 400 Conejos Espadín Joven gains its citric, fruity, and slightly smoky flavour from the selection of the best Espadín agave pineapples from Oaxaca as well as its meticulous care during the artisanal production process.

Mezcal 400 Conejos Espadín Joven acquires its aromatic characteristics from the harvest of mature Espadín agaves, it's cooking in a traditional underground oven using mesquite wood, grinding in a Tahona mill, a spontaneous 28-day fermentation, and a double distillation in traditional copper pots. Crafted by our master mezcalero, Don Tacho, this mezcal combines freshness and smoothness for the most subtle and demanding palates.

The Espadín Agave

This agave variant is the focus of mezcal production in Mexico, at least for the last few decades, thanks to its wide availability and easy cultivation.

The Espadín is considered the genetic grandfather of blue agave, with leaves resembling swords, which radiate like a sunbeam emerging from the pineapple.

This agave offers a slightly smooth, fruity, and herbal profile, with wildflowers and a delicate smoky touch.
