Mala Mía Mezcal embodies a deep respect for artisanal tradition while refining familiar flavors. This dedication shines through in their meticulous process, beginning with mature Agave Angustifolia (Espadín). Honoring heritage, they employ a traditional horse-drawn tahona to crush the roasted agave hearts, followed by a patient six-day natural fermentation in pine barrels using wild yeasts. Double distillation in copper stills over 36 hours further refines the spirit, which is finally certified by the Consejo Regulador Del Mezcal, assuring authenticity and quality in every bottle.
Join us at Union Square Wines for an exclusive tasting featuring the Mala Mía Espadín Mezcal. While Espadín is the most common agave used for mezcal, often known for pronounced smoke resulting from a typical seven-day roast, Mala Mía takes a distinct approach. They have perfected a shorter, four-day roasting technique. This crucial difference yields an Espadín that is remarkably smooth, beautifully balanced, subtly sweeter, and notably less smoky than many counterparts.
Discover firsthand how this unique production choice creates a truly delightful expression of Espadín. Its approachable profile makes it perfect for sipping neat, allowing the nuanced agave character to shine, yet it possesses the balance to elevate any cocktail. Whether you are new to mezcal or a seasoned aficionado seeking a refined take on a classic, this tasting offers a delicious exploration. Don't miss the chance to experience Mala Mía's expertly crafted difference.
