Sin Gusano Ensamble Chino

Sin Gusano Ensamble Chino is a mezcal blended from more than one agave variety, built around Chino agave, Agave rhodacantha, which is traditionally used in artisanal mezcal and raicilla production in western Mexico. It is made in a small, single batch at an independent palenque, using traditional pit-roasting, stone-milling and clay or copper distillation. The character is earthy, herbal and slightly savoury. It is a distinctive, small-production spirit that suits adventurous mezcal drinkers more than newcomers.
