Description
This limited-edition expression is the second Ensemble mezcal produced by Corte Vetusto. “Ensemble” stands for “blend”, meaning that different agave varieties are used. Espadin, tobala, and Karwinskii (madrecuishe) agaves are used in equal parts in the recipe. The production methods are traditional with the cooking taking place in a rock-lined pit oven for 3 to 5 days. Then they are crushed using a horse-pulled stone mill, before being left to ferment naturally for 1 to 2 weeks in open-air wooden vats. The double distillation process is unique with the first distillation taking place in a copper pot still and the second in a smaller clay pot still. The spirit is distilled to proof 87 proof, to be exact. The mezcal has several awards under its belt, including a Gold Medal and “Best in Class” from the American Distilling Institute, a Double Gold Medal and Trophy from the 2020 International Spirits Challenge.Grab this limited-edition mezcal today!
