Originating from the mountains of the Oaxaca region, "Pierde Almas Joven Tepextate" is an exceptionally rare and powerful artisanal mezcal made from wild Tepextate agaves that have matured for decades. Thanks to masterful craftsmanship and a striking 55% ABV (highest ABV allowed in Mexico), this spirit reveals an incredibly intense taste profile inspired by wild nature.
The aroma unfolds with bright notes of herbs, green peppers, and fresh aloe, enveloped in a subtle, earthy campfire smoke and hints of wild blossoms.
On the palate, the spirit surprises with a powerful, concentrated, and viscous structure; savory spices, minerality, and green vegetal accents intertwine with a long-lasting, warming smoky aftertaste.
It is recommended to taste neat, taking small sips from a traditional copita glass, allowing the spirit to breathe and open up. It pairs perfectly with fatty meat dishes, spicy Mexican mole sauce, beef steaks, or aged, intensely flavored cheeses.
