About Mezcal Arroqueño
Maguey Arroqueño (also known as Agave americana var. oaxacensis) grows in Oaxaca’s wild and rugged terrain and typically takes a massive, broad-leafed form. Its giant piñas can weigh hundreds of kilos due to the agave’s slow maturation (often 18–25 years), and the plant generally features long, sword-shaped leaves with a waxy, green-gray hue. Because of its size and dense core, mezcal made from Arroqueño often shows robust roasted-agave flavors layered with deep earthiness, herbaceous green notes and tropical fruit undertones.
