The Roots of Montelobos Mezcal
Montelobos Mezcal Artesanal is an exploration of heritage and innovation. Founded with a deep respect for mezcal's rich history, Montelobos crafts its spirits using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations. The journey begins with the heart of the mezcal—agave. Grown organically, each agave plant is nurtured until it reaches perfect maturity, ensuring a base of exceptional quality.
What is Mezcal?
Unlike its cousin tequila, mezcal is distilled from a variety of agave species, offering a broader palette of flavors and aromas. It is traditionally made by roasting the agave in underground pits, which imparts the distinctive smoky flavor that mezcal is renowned for. This artisanal approach results in a spirit that is deeply complex and endlessly fascinating.
