Blue Agave which is used for the production of tequila, takes 6-8 years to mature. The Arroqueño Agave which is used in this mezcal, takes 20 – 30 years to mature. That is a lot of years in a plants life and a lot of years in a human life, and it means that farming this particular species. takes huge amounts of patience and can be quite risky financially. There is a reason that it is used for spirits though. I makes a fantastic mezcal!
The La Medida Mezcal Artisanal Arroqueño Agave is put together by master mezcalero Melitón López Juárez from El Tecolote, Miahuatlán, Oaxaca, México.
