what is Xiaman mezcal?
Back then, an early form of mezcal was already consumed by the indigenous people of Mexico. Nowadays, it’s enjoyed by lovers of fine spirits worldwide. will you be the next one?
while tequila producers can only use the blue Weber agave to craft tequila, mezcaleros can choose from a bigger range of agaves for their mezcal. We combined the tepextate and espadin agave to create our wonderful drink.
mezcal is more complex in its production process and taste profile. yet, it’s still an art to distill high-quality mezcal. modern production methods take over the industry, but we keep it real, traditional, a handicraft.
Production process
The manufacturing of Xiaman Mezcal is strictly “artesanal”, which means according to tradition and specific rules. With 44% alcohol content, this “ensemble” -roasted Tepextate & Espadín blend is of the highest quality and meets all standards set by the Mezcal Regulatory Council.
Xiaman is a blend of two agaves, 50% Tepextate agave and 50% Espadín agave. This blend achieves a perfect balance, between the complex flavours the Tepextate provides, and the rich aromas from mature Espadin.
