Embrace Tradition with Wahaka Abocado con Gusano Reposado Mezcal
This premium reposado mezcal artfully fuses centuries-old tradition with uncompromising flavor. Estate-grown Espadin agaves are patiently cultivated for 7-8 years amid the diverse soils, elevations, and terrains of San Dionisio Ocotepec before reaching full maturity.
An Artisanal Labor of Love
The pias are cooked for 3-5 days in earthen pits over pine wood, imparting enticing smoky notes. After crushing with a tahona millstone, open-air fermentation of 10-12 days allows native yeasts to spark the transformation. Double distillation in copper pot stills refines the flavor.
Oak-Aged with an Iconic Oaxacan Accent
The hearts of this exceptional mezcal are then mellowed for 4-6 months in re-charred American oak barrels, achieving a rich caramel hue. Following traditional Oaxacan methods, agave worms are infused into each bottling, adding signature depth and complexity.
A Rich Tapestry to Savor
On the nose, this reposado seduces with aromas of sweet agave nectar, caramelized tropical fruits, and a hint of earthy smoke. The palate ventures into layers of dark chocolate, cinnamon, dried fruits, and roasted nuts before resolving into a long, smoky-wood finish with trailing agave sweetness.
An Authentic Spirit to Sip or Mix Sip Wahaka Abocado con Gusano neat at room temperature to experience the full tapestry of flavors. It also elevates premium cocktails like the Oaxacan Old Fashioned with its mellow yet complex character. Embrace the iconic traditions of Oaxaca in each sublime bottling.
