Mezcalosfera de Mezcaloteca is well-known in Oaxaca City for sourcing all of their agave spirits directly from producers in seldom-traveled parts of Oaxaca that are often hard to get to. This mezcal is no exception: made by fifth-generation Maestro Mezcalero Job Cortés in Miahuatlán, it is double-distilled in copper pot stills, with papalo leaf being added during the second distillation. This gives the resulting mezcal a bright, fresh and herbal quality, complimented by a well-incorporated smoke and complex earthiness.
