Creyente
Creyente is a distinctive mezcal brand that hails from Oaxaca, Mexico, a region renowned for its rich mezcal heritage and diverse agave varieties. The name Creyente translates to "believer" in Spanish, reflecting the brand’s commitment to traditional craftsmanship and the artisanal spirit of mezcal production. Established with a vision to create high-quality, authentic mezcal, Creyente focuses on honoring the ancestral methods of distillation while showcasing the unique flavors and characteristics of different agave plants.
Creyente mezcal is crafted using 100% agave, primarily the Espadín variety, which is known for its versatility and vibrant flavor profile. The production process involves roasting the agave in underground pits, where they are cooked with wood and volcanic rock, imparting a distinctive smoky flavor to the spirit. After roasting, the agave is crushed using a traditional tahona (a stone wheel), followed by fermentation with natural yeasts, and then distilled in copper pot stills to preserve the pure essence of the agave.
The brand offers several expressions, including a Blanco, which is fresh and vibrant, showcasing the bright herbal and citrus notes characteristic of the Espadín agave. Their Reposado and Añejo expressions undergo aging in oak barrels, which adds layers of complexity, with flavors of vanilla, caramel, and spices intermingling with the natural agave character. Creyente mezcal is ideal for sipping neat or in cocktails, providing an authentic taste of Mexico's rich mezcal tradition. With its dedication to quality and craftsmanship, Creyente represents the artistry and depth of flavor that define the world of mezcal.
