¥330.00
400 Conejos Espadin Joven is produced by maestro mezcalero Don Tacho in Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca. Don Tacho carefully selects the agave Espadin when they have reached maturity after 8-10 years. This mezcal is traditionally produced using a stone oven (horno), horse-drawn tahona, and copper distillation.
In Mexico, this mezcal is sold at 38% ABV whereas in the United States it is 40% ABV.
Flavor: Soft with hints of fresh wood that are subtly combined with sweet notes of cooked agave.
Aroma: Campfire and ash, accompanied by faint ripe fruits and light herbal notes.
Finish: A pleasant and smoky finish.
Mezcal 400 Conejos is named after the ancestral belief that agave spirits were occupied by 400 rabbits. Those who ingested the agave spirits would be controlled by one of the 400 rabbits, but no one ever knew which rabbit you’d get with each mezcal. Each rabbit had a different personality and way of making you think and act. Mezcal 400 Conejos’ expressions are made with agave Espadin, and their mezcal is marketed mostly for cocktails.
