Utilizing a combination of both modern and historical technique, the agave honeys for Mina Real are fermented together with their crushed piña fibers, followed by a double distillation in ceramic pots for a classic earthiness and character. The Reposado is barreled in used American white oak casks.
Mina Real is a step in a new direction for Oaxacan mezcal, made from agave that has been steam-roasted in low pressure brick kilns in order to highlight the plants’ bright highland flavor and floral bouquet without the layers of smoke traditionally found with woodroasted mezcal agave.
