Xicaru Silver Mezcal embodies the essence of traditional Oaxacan craftsmanship, reflecting the heritage and dedication of its creator, Fernando Santibañez. Named after the Zapotec word for "beautiful," Xicaru is produced in small batches at a palenque in Matatlán, Oaxaca, using methods passed down through generations. This mezcal is made from 100% Maguey espadin, harvested at approximately eight years of maturity, and crafted with a deep respect for tradition. The production process involves cooking the maguey in underground conical stone ovens fueled by mesquite and ocote, giving it a distinctive smoky flavor. Each bottle of Xicaru is adorned with a unique jaguar symbolizing strength and agility, showcasing the connection to ancient Zapotec culture.

Tasting Notes

Nose: The aromatic journey begins with a distinctive smokiness that wafts through the air, a signature note derived from the traditional method of cooking 100% Maguey Espadin in an underground conical stone oven. The nose is further enriched by earthy tones, hints of mesquite, and the natural sweetness of mature agave.

Taste: Xicaru Silver Artesanal Mezcal unfolds on the palate with a delicate interplay of flavors. The smokiness persists, accompanied by the rich, slightly sweet character of cooked agave. There's a subtle herbal quality, a testament to the meticulous fermentation process in open-air pine vats. The taste is clean and crisp, offering a true representation of the mezcal's raw ingredients.

Finish: The finish is a journey into the heart of Oaxaca, with the mezcal undergoing double-distillation in small copper alembics. The result is a smooth and lingering warmth that resonates with the mezcal's artisanal craftsmanship. Each sip is a homage to the jaguar, symbolizing strength and agility in ancient Zapotec culture.
