Alambique Serrano Alambique de Cobre Pot Still White Rum
Discover an uncompromising expression of high-ester craftsmanship with Alambique Serrano Alambique de Cobre, an unaged white rum that showcases the wild, artisanal traditions of the Oaxacan mountains. Crafted in Santa María Tlalixtac within the rugged Cañada region, this spirit is produced by third-generation distillers Los Hermanos Krassel.
Organic Java sugarcane is hand-harvested from steep hillside plots reaching up to 1,200 meters. The fresh-pressed cane juice undergoes spontaneous fermentation in wooden pine vats using ambient yeasts, followed by a slow, double distillation in tiny 250-liter copper pot alembics that yield just five liters per hour. Bottled completely unfiltered at a potent 71.1% ABV, this additive-free rum preserves every congener and volatile lipid for maximum character.
Tasting Notes
- Aroma: Dense and viscous, opening with a sharp wave of brine, sour green olives, fermented plantains, and a pronounced lactic tang.
- Palate: A heavy ester core cuts through the high-proof heat, revealing crushed lemongrass, green papaya, bright lime zest, and cracked peppercorn.
- Finish: Long and savory, leaving lingering notes of chalky minerality, fresh pine sap, and deep vegetative funk.
Serving Suggestion
This spirit evolves dramatically with a small amount of water or prolonged exposure to air. For a rustic, high-ester Ti' Punch, combine 2 oz of Alambique de Cobre with 1 barspoon of raw cane syrup (such as piloncillo) and a freshly cut disc of lime peel. Swizzle gently with a single ice cube to temper the robust proof while unlocking explosive tropical aromas.

What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
