Questions about this bottle
What does 'Joven' mean for mezcal?
Joven means 'young' — the mezcal is unaged and bottled shortly after distillation, which is why it shows a clear color and a more direct, smoky agave character than a reposado or añejo mezcal.
How should mezcal like this be served?
Traditionally sipped neat in a small clay cup or copita, often with a side of orange slices and sal de gusano (worm salt) rather than lime and regular salt.
What is Espadín agave?
It's the most widely cultivated agave for mezcal production, valued for its reliable yield and balanced, approachable flavor compared to rarer wild agave varieties.
