100% Wild Salmiana Agave (12 yrs), from Valle de San Francisco, La Ventilla, Guanajuato, Mexico.

Raise a glass Lucy Pistolas Mezcal to the hard-working, revolutionary women striving to change the world. Lucy Pistolas Mezcal is made with perfectly ripened Agave Salmiana grown in Guanajuato, Mexico.

HISTORY: Women during the Mexican revolution played an extremely important role. Some fought in battle; some cooked, cleaned, and marched next to the soldiers, many times with their children on their backs; some cared for the wounded. Many women sold their belongings, most often their only items of value, to join the fight for justice and equality. They were strong, determined and fearless.

ABOUT: Lucy is our tribute to these women who fought to reclaim the lands where our Mezcal distillery stands today.

PREPARATION & DISTILLATION: La Ventilla in San Felipe is one of two tiny regions in Guanajuato that produce Mezcal. Using a centuries-old above-ground oven highlights the bright, herbal and floral character of 10-12 yr old Salmiana Agave plants. The Agave piñas are then steam cooked in these ovens for three days before extracting their juice, to retain the plant's natural sweetness and the authentic Mexico terroir. The juice is later distilled using a "rectificador," which is a copper alembic system with a series of plates that slowly works its magic with a single run of the still.

TASTING NOTES: Light bodied Mezcal. Aromas of Lime, Lemon, Eucalyptus, Green Peppercorn and Mexican cooking Spices. On the palate this bright Mezcal has layers of unfolding Sweetness, with notes of Fresh Grass, Serrano & Shishito Peppers, Herbs & Desert Shrubs, finishing on a distinct Sweet Cinnamon note.

Gather ‘round and toast to the one's fighting the good fight!
