Pensador Mezcal

Don Atenogenes and his family create Pensador Mezcal in his fields near Miahuatlan, Oaxaca, using traditional methods which remain largely unchanged since the 16th Century.

They use a combination of espadín and madre-cuishe agave to create it - these are popular agave varieties for good reason.

The process from harvest to bottle each batch of Pensador takes two months - with the hand bottling and labelling taking it closer to three.

Expect oak smoke, roasted apricot, black pepper and a mineral-rich earthiness supported by citrus and grape.
