The Producer Espadin Maguey Joven 1 L

The Producer Espadin Maguey Joven is an unaged mezcal made from Espadin, the most widely cultivated agave used in mezcal production, from a small palenque in Oaxaca, Mexico. Following traditional methods, the agave hearts are roasted in an underground pit oven, crushed, fermented in open wooden vats, and double-distilled in copper stills — a process that leaves the mezcal with a pronounced smoky character straight from the earthen roast. Bottled joven, or unaged, it shows that smoke alongside earthy, citrus, and black-pepper notes without any barrel influence softening the edges. This is a mezcal for drinkers who want the traditional style unfiltered by wood.

How to drink The Producer Espadin Maguey Joven

Sip it neat in a small copita to let the pit-roast smoke lead — mezcal like this loses character fast over ice. An orange slice dusted with sal de gusano on the side is the traditional accompaniment, not a mixer.
