Step into the rich heritage of Oaxacan tradition with Valente Garcia Madrecuishe Mezcal Produced using time-honored artisanal methods, the agave is roasted in an underground pit, crushed by a traditional horse-drawn tahona, and fermented in open-air wooden vats. The result is a vibrant, structured mezcal that perfectly reflects the terroir of its native soil and the masterful touch of the Garcia family.
Tasting Notes
- Aroma: Fresh cut grass, damp earth, crushed herbs, and a whisper of clean, sweet smoke.
- Palate: Crisp and structured. Bright notes of green bell pepper, fresh mint, and jalapeño balance perfectly with underlying roasted agave sweetness and a touch of wet stone.
- Finish: Dry, clean, and lingering, with a delightful herbal spice and a distinct, refreshing minerality.
How to Enjoy
This bright and vegetal mezcal shines when sipped neat. Pour it into a traditional clay copita or a wide-rimmed glass to allow the herbal aromas to fully express themselves. It also makes an incredibly elevated base for a Mezcal Margarita or a Oaxaca Old Fashioned.
