The family has been producing mezcal for 4 generations using blue Weber agaves that yield between 7 and 10 bottles per plant. The blue Weber agaves are harvested once they are mature, which takes upwards of 7 years. The jimadores cut the plants using a coa knife, revealing the heart (pi\u00f1a). Then, the pi\u00f1as are steam-cooked in a stainless steel autoclave for 8 hours before letting them rest for 12 hours. Once they are cooled, they are crushed and strained. The agave juice ferments naturally for 72 hours before finally being double-distilled and bottled at 80 proof. Produced in annual vintages, this mezcal stays true to the rich legacy and history of the famous spirit. The Blanco Mezcal won a Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2021. <\/p>\n<p>Get your bottle of this authentic mezcal today!                                        <\/p>\n<div class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\">\n<h2 class=\"story-subtitle\">About Mezcal<\/h2>\n<p>Mezcal is a distilled spirit made from roasted agave plants  between two days and two weeks, which gives it a distinct smokey flavor. <br \/>What scotch is for whisk(e)y, mezcal is for tequila.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>It can be made from different types of agave in different parts of Mexico, but most of it (60%) comes from the state of Oaxaca.
