La Leyenda 100% Full Term Blue Agave Mezcal
La Leyenda is an authentic mezcal that's crafted on a private family farm in Zacatecas, Mexico. The family has been producing mezcal for 4 generations using blue Weber agaves that yield between 7 and 10 bottles per plant. The blue Weber agaves are harvested once they are mature, which takes upwards of 7 years. The jimadores cut the plants using a coa knife, revealing the heart (piña). Then, the piñas are steam-cooked in a stainless steel autoclave for 8 hours before letting them rest for 12 hours. Once they are cooled, they are crushed and strained.
- Size: 750mL
- Proof: 80 (40% ABV)
Tasting Notes
The mezcal opens with earthy aromas, apple vinegar, and lemon zest. Look for fresh agave, tropical pineapple, and banana notes on the palate, leading to a smooth and crisp finish with a gentle earthiness.
