- Gin distilled from local botanicals and the spent agave from mezcal production in the district of Tlacolula in Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca
- Maestro destilador Gonzalo Martinez
- After its use in his family’s mezcal production, spent agave fiber (bagasse) is re-milled by hand using a large wooden mallet
- Combined incrementally with spring water and refermented using only wild yeast
- Distilled once on a clay still (Ancestral) before 15 locally sourced botanicals are added in the second distillation
- Highlighted botanicals include juniper, hoja santa (Mexican pepperleaf), basil, cinnamon, guava, orange & lime peel, eucalyptus, lemon grass, and mint; all botanicals, including the juniper, are sourced within Tlacolula.
- Rested in glass for one year before bottling
- This juniper-forward expression is complemented by fresh cucumber skin, sea salt, and tapioca root on the nose. The palate confidently displays lemongrass beautifully married with hues of clay, lemon verbena, green peppercorn, and a finish of pine resin and spearmint. Don’t be surprised when you find yourself sipping this gin neat.
