They press grind the agave hearts under a mule-turned stone mill to extract the golden juices and pulp-ferment it in wooden barrels with natural, local yeasts. Then the mash is distilled twice in copper pot-stills before it’s filtered and bottled. This is a true artisanal product,\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Mexican \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ecraftsmanship\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e and tradition in a bottle. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n \u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe end result is a complex Spirit with a \u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003every distinct smoky character,\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e but with a bit of sweetness and earthy quality to balance the whole act in your mouth.
