About Mezcales Cuish
Mezcales Cuish is a collective of rural Oaxacan producers crafting mezcal from wild and semi-wild agave species, each plant allowed to mature from six to eighteen years before harvest. The brand emphasises traditional methods and the biodiversity of Oaxaca’s agave landscape, noting that its spirits come from “joyas creadas desde las agaváceas que requieren entre 6 y 18 años para alcanzar su plenitud y madurez.”
About Mezcal Tepeztate
Maguey Tepeztate (Agave marmorata) grows in steep, rocky terrain and is known for its long, winding leaves and extremely slow maturation, often taking two to three decades to reach harvest. According to Mezcalistas and Mezcal Reviews, its dense, low-moisture core contributes to mezcals with pronounced minerality, bold herbal and green-pepper notes, and a distinctive earthy intensity. These bottlings are often celebrated for their complexity and aromatic depth, reflecting the dramatic landscapes where Tepeztate thrives.
