Zacbe
Zacbe, a mezcal crafted in the heart of San Agustín Amatengo, Oaxaca, weaves a tale of tradition and myth. Under the skilled guidance of Maestro Mezcalero Apolonio Ramirez Cruz, Espadin and Cirial agave blend harmoniously. Their journey begins with the agave roasted in an underground pit oven and is transformed by the patient grinding of ox-drawn tahona. Nature's hand guides the open-air yeast fermentation and the copper refrescadora still distillation. Zacbé Mezcal, an ode to nature's purity, pays homage to the elements that nurtured the maguey plant and breathed life into this elixir. Their ethos reflects the mythical essence of mezcal, a spirit untouched by anything but the elements – water, sun, air, and earth. From the stones and wood that danced with fire during cooking to the yeasts of the maguey and the land, this mezcal embodies the essence of a rich and storied heritage.
