About Derrumbes Mezcal
Derrumbes is a traditional producer of mezcal from Oaxaca, to Michoacan and beyond. Their signature style is to cook their agave in stone pits underground, using black oak. Their unique fermentation process involves underground tanks lined with pine wood for fermentation, and distillation via a wooden still, all of which guarantee some of the most intriguing and unique aromas and flavors to be experienced in Mezcal.
Handcrafted by Maestro Mezcalero Javier Mateo, Derrumbes Oaxaca is a perfect example of a signature Central Valley Oaxacan mezcal. Being cooked underground in black oak gives the agave a light smokiness, enhancing the minerality and fruitiness of the Espadin character.
Mezcal is a distilled spirit made from roasted agave plants between two days and two weeks, which gives it a distinct smokey flavor. What scotch is for whisk(e)y, mezcal is for tequila.
It can be made from different types of agave in different parts of Mexico, but most of it (60%) comes from the state of Oaxaca. Mezcal offers a large diversity of flavor profiles and ranges between 40 and 55% ABV.
