Convite Espadin Mezcal Esencial 700ml

Mezcal Convite Esencial is an artisanal mezcal from San Baltazar Guelavila. It is made in the traditional way, without any accelerators or added flavors, using the highest quality ingredients. The production is made in small, exclusive lots. They are a Oaxacan-owned company.

Convite Esencial is the entry point for the full Convite lineup. It’s made with agave Espadin, however it is cut to 38% ABV, making this much lighter than all of the other mezcals in the Convite lineup.

Aside from the lower ABV, this mezcal is produced like all the others in the lineup, with the agave cooked in an underground pit oven, milled by a horse-drawn tahona, naturally fermented with spring water, and double distilled in a copper alembic still.

Known also as Espadín or Dob-Yee, it’s the most widely grown type of agave, able to adapt to varying weather conditions
