The flagship mezcal from the home of the Saravia family, Rancho El Ojo, a true biodiverse and sustainable property. 30% of the fields are allowed to flower and seed, increasing diversity in the agaves.
The nose shows pineapple/guava notes with wet slate and bacon fat. On the palate, clove, green pepper and volcanic stone roll over finishing with a sweet cacao spice and heat, that reminds me of guajillo chile.

FAQ
Questions and Answers
-
What does Agaveria means?
Agaveria is the place where to buy spirits made from Agave, such as
Tequila, Mezcal, Raicilla, Sotol and many more. It comes from the two
Spanish words Agave and Eria – from the Latin word that means store. -
What is the difference between Tequila, Mezcal, Sotol and Raicilla?
First, those spirits come from Mexico, and all have Appellation of Origin, better known as Denomination of Origin, meaning that nowhere else in the world can make these spirits and call them such.
The main difference between each one is the specie of Agave used (except for Sotol since it’s not made out of an Agave, but from a plant called Dasylirion or better known as Sotol) own plant and is not an agave) and the place/region/state that is made. There are differences in their process, and each spirit has a unique and distinctive
flavour and character. -
How do I store my spirit?
We recommend you do two things first, store them in a place away from sunlight and significant temperature changes, and second, seal your bottles with clingwrap or parafilm to preserve the alcohol.
