Espiritu Lauro Agaves Silvestres Cuixe

Wild Cuixe from the Oaxacan Highlands

Espiritu Lauro Agaves Silvestres Cuixe is a rare and distinctive mezcal made from wild Cuixe agave — a variety of the Karwinski family known for its tall, slender piñas and the elegant, mineral-driven complexity it imparts to the mezcal. Cuixe grows wild in the rocky hillsides of Oaxaca, takes over a decade to mature, and produces a mezcal of extraordinary delicacy and character. Espiritu Lauro produces this expression using traditional artisanal methods that honor the wild agave and the land it comes from.
