Siete Misterios Mezcal Olla de Barro Espadín

Experience the nuanced character of Siete Misterios Mezcal Olla de Barro Espadín, a testament to the ancient art of clay pot distillation. In their ongoing commitment to preserving traditional mezcal practices, Siete Misterios presents this exceptional Espadín, uniquely distilled in olla de barro – traditional clay pots. This method imparts a distinct profile to the mezcal, often resulting in a smoother texture and unique flavor complexities compared to those distilled in copper stills.  

Sourced from carefully selected Espadín agave and crafted by skilled mezcaleros who have mastered this ancestral technique, each batch of Siete Misterios Olla de Barro Espadín offers a glimpse into mezcal's rich heritage. As with all their offerings, the specific mezcalero, village, and even slight variations in ABV may differ between bottles, contributing to the individual story of each batch. Check your bottle for these details to fully appreciate its unique origin.

Tasting Notes

While the clay pot distillation imparts a signature character, expect tasting notes for Siete Misterios Olla de Barro Espadín to include, often:

  • Aromas: The nose typically presents a softer, more rounded smokiness than copper-distilled Espadín. You might detect notes of cooked agave sweetness, often with hints of earthy clay, subtle floral nuances, and perhaps a touch of tropical fruit or mild spice.
  • Palate: The olla de barro distillation often yields a silky and approachable texture. The palate reveals a harmonious blend of sweet cooked agave, a gentle smoky minerality, and distinct earthy undertones derived from the clay. You might also find notes of ripe fruit, such as a pear or an apple, alongside delicate herbal or spice notes that add complexity.   
  • Finish: The finish is typically smooth and lingering, with the unique earthy clay notes often persisting alongside a pleasant warmth and a subtle sweetness. The overall impression is one of refined elegance and a gentle invitation for another sip.  

Siete Misterios Mezcal Olla de Barro Espadín offers a unique opportunity to experience the transformative power of traditional clay pot distillation. It's a smooth, complex, and deeply rooted expression of Espadín agave, showcasing the artistry and heritage that Siete Misterios so passionately champions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is all your inventory online?

We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.

Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?

Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.

However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.

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.
