Hailing from Santa Maria Sola de Vega in Oaxaca, Tepanal 'Puntas' Ancestral is a tribute to Mexico's rich mezcal tradition. Crafted by Mezcalero Rafael G. Garcia Aragon, this spirit combines the wild Tobala, Arroqueño, and Sierra Negra agave varietals, each lending a unique depth to the blend. The fermentation takes place in wooden vats, and the agaves are hand-macerated, resulting in a deep, natural complexity. Distilled three times in clay pots, the spirit reaches an impressive 150.2 proof, yet retains a smooth profile, highlighting the artistry behind its creation.
The tasting experience is vivid, with notes of earth, minerals, and a gentle smokiness that showcase the terroir of Oaxaca. Hints of herbs, wildflowers, and a touch of spice unfold with each sip, revealing the layered flavors of each agave species. The high-proof, Joven mezcal, despite its potency, is surprisingly balanced, allowing the flavors to shine without overpowering. Each element, from the clay pot distillation to the hand-selected agave, contributes to an unparalleled tasting journey that honors traditional practices.
Meant for sipping and savoring, Tepanal 'Puntas' is best enjoyed neat to appreciate its intricate profile. With only 120 bottles of this limited batch, it is a rare find for enthusiasts who seek out authentic, artisanal agave spirits.
