Description
Rey Campero Madre Cuishe Mezcal is created from agave that belongs to the Karwinskii family. Harvested after 15-18 years, its then roasted in an underground oven and fermented with natural yeast in wooden vats. This authentic mezcal is double-distilled in a copper pot still by Maestro Mezcalero Rmulo Snchez Parada. Adored for its striking balance of vanilla, smoke, ripe banana, and white chocolate that mingle on the velvety palate, its subtle yet bold at the same time. Savor it neat and sip it slowly.Rey Campero means “King of the Countryside.” Its story is tied to Mezcalero Rmulo Snchez Parada, who learned all about producing mezcal from his father and grandfather, but the family tradition actually started with his great grandmother Clara Manzano Rios. She was the one who built the familys palenque the first in Candelaria Yegol in 1870 and started distilling with her husband Nicolas Sanchez. Initially, Rmulo Snchez Parada emigrated to North Carolina but returned to Candelaria Yegol, Mexico, in 2003 and started making Mezcal again with his family. This is a family with a rich history in making mezcal that spans more than 7 decades and 4 generations of Mezcaleros. Today, Rey Camepro is produced in Candelaria Yegol, a tiny village of 150 people in the Oaxacan Highlands just as it once was, according to tradition and with sustainability in mind. They focus on producing the finest quality mezcal, finding new markets for the spirit, as well as creating job opportunities.Get Rey Campero Madre Cuishe Mezcal today!
