Pluma Negra Espadin 750 ml

Pluma Negra Espadin is an artisanal mezcal from San Juan del Río, Oaxaca, made by maestro mezcalero Rodolfo Hernández using methods passed down through his family. It is a traditional, hands-on process from start to finish.

Espadín agave is cooked in an underground earthen oven, crushed with an animal-drawn stone tahona, and left to ferment with wild yeast in pine vats. It is then distilled twice in small copper pot stills. Pluma Negra releases its Espadín at more than one strength, including a 48% ABV bottling for sipping and a 40% ABV version aimed at cocktails, so check the label for the strength of your bottle.

In the glass it balances tangy citrus and briny olive with sweet cooked agave, vanilla, a touch of caramel and gentle smoke. Sip it neat to take in the details, or use it to give a mezcal margarita some real character.
