Maguey Tepemete is a form of Agave angustifolia and among the rarest of agaves in Durango (we only received three cases in our first order!); it is a small agave that grows in the low areas of South Mezquital, weighing an average of 10kg. Due to its size and scarcity, it is difficult to produce, making it one of the rarest mezcales in Mexico. The agave is cooked in an underground oven with mesquite wood and river stones, then is crushed by hand using a machete. It ferments in open-air pine tanks, and is distilled in the traditional wooden “alambique viejo” of indigenous communities of southern Mezquital. Unbelievably unique, complex, and rare." - Lorenz Agave Spirits
