400 Conejos Espadin Cuishe Oaxaca 750 ml

400 Conejos Espadín Cuishe is a joven mezcal blending two agave varieties — Espadín, the workhorse of mezcal production, and Cuishe, a slower-growing wild variety prized for its more mineral, vegetal character — from small producers in Oaxaca, Mexico. Named for the 400 rabbit gods of pulque in Aztec mythology, 400 Conejos sources from traditional palenques that roast agave in underground pit ovens before crushing, fermenting in open vats, and double-distilling in copper stills. Expect a smoky, earthy mezcal with citrus and herbal notes from the Espadín and a more mineral, grassy edge from the Cuishe. It's a good bottle for exploring agave blends beyond single-varietal mezcal.

How to drink 400 Conejos Espadín Cuishe

Sip it neat in a small copita to let both agave varieties show through — mezcal blends like this lose nuance fast over ice. Pair it with orange slices and sal de gusano on the side, the traditional accompaniment rather than a mixer.
