Savor the Rare Artistry of Pierde Almas Tepeztate Mezcal
Crafted from the elusive Tepeztate agave, this exceptional mezcal is a reverent tribute to Mexican heritage and tradition. Through centuries-old distillation methods passed down through generations, each sip reveals a complex and harmonious symphony of flavors.
- The Rarity: Only a handful of master mezcaleros can tame the wild, mineral-rich Tepeztate agave that thrives in the remote regions of Mexico. This "pearl" varietal is highly prized for its intense yet elegant character.
- The Process: The agave's precious nectar is roasted in conical ovens and crushed with a tahona stone mill. It is then double-distilled in copper pot stills. This unhurried, artisanal approach captures the agave's vivid essence.
- The Essence: On the palate, bold notes of wood smoke and herbs mingle with tropical fruit and an undercurrent of minerality. The long, dry finish lingers with whispers of citrus and spice. Each meticulously crafted batch encapsulates the soul of Mexico's rugged landscapes.
Let this rare mezcal transport you through its provenance's arid deserts and lush valleys. Savor it neat or in a fine cocktail, and experience the reverence and passion of true artisanal craft with every sublime sip.

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.
