Description
Del Maguey Mezcal Chichicapa 70cl, 46% is a single village mezcal from San Balthazar Chichicapam in Oaxaca, Mexico. It is part of Del Maguey’s Village Tradiciones Collection and is made from local EspadĂn agave, giving it a classic, expressive and highly recognisable Oaxacan mezcal identity.
This Chichicapa expression is produced by palenquero Faustino Garcia Vasquez and twice distilled in wood-fired copper pot stills. The result is a clear, aromatic and complex mezcal with roasted agave, citrus, earthy minerality, pepper, smoke, herbs and a long, savoury finish.
Bottled here at 46%, this is a serious mezcal for sipping neat, but it also works beautifully in premium agave cocktails such as a Mezcal Margarita, Oaxaca Old Fashioned or Naked & Famous-style serve. It is a strong bottle for customers who enjoy authentic, village-focused mezcal with depth and character.
