Puntagave Joven Mezcal
Wild Highland Agave | Pit-Roasted | Vibrant Earth & Smoke
Available now at Liquor Boutique
Puntagave Joven Mezcal is distilled from wild-collected highland agaves—primarily Espadín, with accent notes from Cupreata and Tobalá—harvested in remote Oaxacan elevations. The piñas are slowly roasted in traditional earthen pits, crushed on a tahona wheel, fermented with native yeasts, and double-distilled in small copper stills. Bottled at 42% ABV, this joven mezcal offers a wonderfully expressive and well-balanced sip, showcasing pure agave character and artisanal depth.
