Frequently Asked Questions

What is Arroqueño agave?

Arroqueño (Agave Oaxacensis) is a wild agave variety native to Oaxaca, prized for its tropical fruit and floral flavor profile. It takes approximately 10–15 years to mature and is considered one of the most expressive and sought-after agave varieties in artisanal mezcal production.

Why is this mezcal single distilled?

Single distillation preserves more of the raw agave's natural character — including its wild, fruity, and earthy notes — resulting in a more expressive and terroir-driven spirit. It's a traditional approach used by many Oaxacan maestros for certain agave varieties.

What makes this batch so rare?

Each batch yields only approximately 580 liters — an exceptionally small production run. Combined with the 11-year agave maturation cycle, this is one of the rarest expressions in The Producer lineup.

How should I enjoy this mezcal?

Best enjoyed neat at room temperature in a copita or wide-mouthed glass. Its higher proof (46% ABV) rewards a few minutes of air before sipping to fully open up the tropical and floral aromatics.

What size is this bottle?

This expression comes in a 750ml bottle.
