Description

La Leyenda is an authentic mezcal that’s crafted on a private family farm in Zacatecas, Mexico. The family has been producing mezcal for 4 generations using blue Weber agaves that yield between 7 and 10 bottles per plant. The blue Weber agaves are harvested once they are mature, which takes upwards of 7 years. The jimadores cut the plants using a coa knife, revealing the heart (pia). Then, the pias are steam-cooked in a stainless steel autoclave for 8 hours before letting them rest for 12 hours. Once they are cooled, they are crushed and strained. The agave juice ferments naturally for 72 hours before finally being double-distilled and bottled at 80 proof. Produced in annual vintages, this mezcal stays true to the rich legacy and history of the famous spirit. The Blanco Mezcal won a Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2021. Get your bottle of this authentic mezcal today!
