MEZCALOSFERA 2022 BICUIXE / MEXICANO - FELIPE DE JESÚS | 500 ML

This small batch (40 litres only) was made by a young 26 years old Mezcalero Felipe de Jesús. He was taught the craft by his father and brother, and is part of the third generation carrying forward his family's legacy. Felipe gets the majority of his agaves from his family land- only when he produces Tobalá he will buy agaves from the Sierra Sur, Oaxaca.

He enjoys working with maguey Tobalá, Barril, Madrecuixe, Bicuixe, Coyote and blends. When he drinks mezcal, he prefers Madrecuixe. He is very enthusiastic about making his own batches. This is a special 40 liters batch that made daddy proud!
