Bruxo No.2 Maguey Breast Mezcal 750 ml

Herbal sweetness and roasted fruit, with a delicate balance of smoke

This young mezcal comes from Oaxaca, from the town of Agua del Espino / San Dionisio Ocotlán, and is artisanally produced by Bruxo. It is an agave blend: 80?% Espadín and 20?% Barril, with mature plants between 8 and 12 years old. It contains no meat; its name “Pechuga” refers to the heart of the maguey, which is separated and soaked after the first distillation to infuse natural aromas.
