This expression is made with 61% wild maguey Largo (Agave karwinskii - 14 years average age) and 39% wild maguey Becuela (Agave marmorata - 30 years average age). Maguey Becuela is commonly known as Tepextate or Tepeztate in some other regions of Oaxaca. The full maturity of these two wild-grown agaves, and the care and expertise of handling these plants made a huge difference of the final liquid produced.
