Nuestra Soledad Santiago Matatlan Mezcal

Nuestra Soledad Santiago Matatlan is made using Espadin that grows between 5,500-5,900 feet elevation in a mountain canyon that has incredible agave diversity. The Espadin used in this Mezcal grows among a sea of wild Tepeztate, Tobala, and Coyote. ABOUT NUESTRA SOLEDAD From the same producers as El Jolgorio, Mezcal Nuestra Soledad is comprised of six distinct mezcals from six different producers located in various regions of Oaxaca, intended to highlight elements of terroir in mezcal production. Oaxaca is one of the most geographically diverse states in Mexico, with a wide array of microclimates, vegetation, and ecosystems. Nuestra Soledad is made using 100% agave Espadín, cultivated in the remote mountain areas around the Valles Centrales region of Oaxaca, alongside wild vegetation and planted in varying soil types, resulting in an array of flavor profiles. Even more importantly, each mezcalero employs his own methods, often passed down through the generations. Every decision impacts the final character of the mezcal. The environmental diversity, combined with the human element of mezcal production, result in six unique mezcals, despite all six being made from a single agave variety: Espadín.
