Tepextate
Tepextate is a type of mezcal made from the wild Agave marmorata, a species known for its large, sprawling leaves and unique growth patterns, often found clinging to rocky cliffs in Oaxaca, Mexico. This agave can take up to 25 to 35 years to mature, making it one of the longest-growing agave species used in mezcal production. Its lengthy maturation and challenging harvest conditions contribute to the rarity and special status of Tepextate mezcal.
The flavor profile of Tepextate mezcal is highly distinctive, often described as intensely herbal and vegetal, with complex layers of spice, citrus, and floral notes. Some expressions might also exhibit a subtle smokiness and minerality, reflecting the rugged terrain where the agave grows. This mezcal is highly regarded by connoisseurs for its bold and intricate flavors, making it a prized bottle for those who appreciate the depth and tradition of artisanal mezcal.
