La Niña del Mezcal Bacanora Sonora is an artisanal spirit rooted in centuries-old Sonoran tradition. Crafted from wild-harvested agave durangensis and agave vivipara grown in the volcanic soils of Sonora, the pinas are slow-roasted in underground pits, naturally fermented, and double-distilled in copper stills. Bottled at about 42% ABV, this Bacanora offers an expressive, terroir-driven tasting experience.
