In Zapotec (pre-hispanic culture from central Mexico) "Jolgorios" are moments of joy, celebration and remembrance. El Jolgrio Mezcal has created a range of artisanal Mezcales which reflect Mexican culture and tradition. This El Jolgorio expression is produced from 100% wild-harvest Agave Mexicano that has been harvested at 8 years but can take up to 11 to reach full maturity. Agave Mexicano grows to be very large with broad, serrated leaves (Pencas) often bearing black tips. A sub-variety of Agave Rhodacantha, Mexicano is known to produce a Mezcal that balances both sweet and savoury notes and is intensely powerful with a long finish.

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.
