  • The trunk-like hearts of this elongated 'karwinskii' maguey take 10-14 years to mature, and look like spiky desert trees growing wildly over the mountains of Southern Mexico. When harvested, the trunks are cooked together with typical round piñas of other species. Soft smoke with candied notes and a creamy mouthfeel layer fruit and a subtle spice on a palette of rich, cooked maguey reminiscent of the high desert just after a heavy rainfall, bright and clean.
  • Made 100% from karwinskii "Largo" maguey grown at 4,800' in municipio of Sta. Catarina Minas, Oaxaca
  • Elongated maguey trunks are earthen roasted for four days using mix of guamúchil and mesquite wood
  • Cooked maguey macerated with proprietary blade spindle destrozadora shredder
  • Fermented together with bagaso in 1,400L pine wood vats using airborne yeast strains
  • Double distilled in ceramic pot stills to approx. 53% ABV and reduced with triple distilled demineralized water, no tails
  • No aging, bottled at 46% ABV

Distiller icon
Master Distiller: Germaín Arellanes Arellanes
In the highlands of southern Mexico, the renowned Arellanes family has been crafting one of the region's most celebrated mezcals since the late 1700s. Eleven generations of continual mezcal distillation with a legendary commitment to craftsmanship and experimentation have culminated in a spirit that is simultaneously complex and approachable. Don Amado is made from earthen roasted maguey hearts which are, after crushing, fermented together with their piña fibers for a rich maguey character. The mash is then double distilled in small traditional ceramic clay pots. Aged varieties are matured in American oak casks previously used for barreling Pedro Domecq brandy.
