Real Minero Espadin Largo Mezcal 750ml
Espadin Largo — The Long Espadín of Santa Catarina Minas
Real Minero Espadín Largo is a distinctive expression from the Angeles family of Santa Catarina Minas — made from a specific sub-variety of Espadín known as "Largo" ("long") for its elongated piñas, which produce a mezcal of greater complexity and depth than standard Espadín. Produced using ancestral clay pot distillation methods that have been practiced by the Angeles family for generations, this is a mezcal that showcases how even within the Espadín variety, terroir, sub-variety, and production method can produce something genuinely extraordinary.
