Introducing the Ultramundo "Lamparillo" Nombre De Dios Durango Mezcal, a unique and exceptional product of place that offers an unbelievable depth of flavor. This mezcal is produced by an important agroforestry project that fosters a balanced relationship with nature. The wild Maguey Lamparillo is harvested from the ranch in Mapimí, Durango, Mexico's Silent Zone, which is known for its rugged and rural terrains and UFO sightings.
The agave is caponed either by hand or naturally by the animals that graze the land. At least 20% of the wild mature agave found are left to complete the lifecycle, ensuring sustainable production. The milling is done by hand with an ax, while the fermentation is wild with ambient yeast in open-air, in-ground, oak-lined wells for two to four days depending on the season.
The distillation process is done twice in a wood-fired copper pot with an oak wood condenser and a copper coil, by Gilberto Roldán Quezada, a Fourth generation Maestro Mezcalero, who is recognized for his great talent in expressing the unique style of any variety of agave on which he puts his hands. With Ultramundo's "Lamparillo del Desierto," the master in the south is exploring a whole new medium.

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.
