El Buho Espadín Distilled With Mango 750ML
The Tropical Pechuga-Style Mezcal Experience: a vibrant and unique expression of Oaxacan mezcal, distilled with mango, courtesy of El Buho Espadín. This artisanal spirit is crafted using the traditional method of adding fruit to the final distillation, similar to the revered Pechuga style (but without the protein), resulting in a spirit that is both rooted in tradition and bursting with tropical flavor.
The Craft:
- Agave: 100% Cultivated Agave Espadín (Agave Angustifolia).
- Process: The agave hearts are roasted in a stone oven and crushed by a horse-drawn tahona. After fermentation, the mezcal is distilled twice. Ripe, peeled mango criollo is then added to the copper still for a third and final distillation. The mango's sugars do not convert to alcohol, but their essence and caramelized flavor profoundly enrich the mezcal.
- ABV: 47% Alc/Vol (94 Proof)
Tasting Notes:
- Color: Crystal clear with medium-sized perlas (bubbles) that indicate high quality and a smooth mouthfeel.
- Aroma: An overwhelming nose of ripe, fresh mango that is clean and bright. Underneath, subtle notes of cooked agave and a hint of lactose (creamy fruit) provide depth.
- Taste: The palate is smooth and vibrant, with the tropical sweetness of mango and green apple taking the lead. The base Espadín mezcal provides a classic profile of roasted agave and a light, balanced smoke that avoids overpowering the fruit.
- Finish: A long, semi-sweet finish that reveals a pleasant warmth of cooked agave and a distinctive, refreshing note of green pepper. This smooth distillate is often described as having the complexity and texture reminiscent of a Pechuga mezcal.
Experience:
El Buho Mango Mezcal is a captivating spirit that is perfect for sipping neat to fully appreciate its unique flavor profile, or as a sophisticated, fruity base for creative mezcal cocktails. It's a bold yet balanced celebration of fruit and fire.

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.
