Real Minero is considered by many to be one of the world’s finest mezcal producers. The Angeles family has been making mezcal for several generations in Santa Catarina Minas, Oaxaca. The famous quality of the Mezcales Mineros comes from its distillation in earthenware pots, a tremendously laborious technique that yields the most impressive spirits. Further peculiarities of Mineros are the use of different wild or cultivated agaves, which are distilled individually or composed in the mash. Often there are only 100 or 200 liters of these special batches produced. With the help of the community, they’ve been able to rescue several agave varieties that were previously thought to be extinct. 

Tasting Notes:

This creamy blend of Espadin and Largo agave is rich in texture with expressive aromas that lean to the green, vegetal, and earthy. This wild agave is a pleasing combination of salt & spice, with hints of cantaloupe rind, fresh bark, and citrus zest on the nose, followed by black pepper, celery, and cream cheese on the palate.
