Pierde Almas Mezcal
Agave Macho Espadin-Cuishe Joven
Agave Macho Espadin-Cuishe Joven is a mezcal ensamble. Roman Rosendo crafts this spirit in San Isidro Guishe, Oaxaca. Angustifolia and Karwinskii agaves age for six to thirteen years before harvest. The producer distills the blend in copper stills at forty percent ABV. San Isidro Guishe provides a distinct terroir for these specific agave varieties. Copper distillation preserves the natural character of the cooked agave hearts. This combination creates a balanced profile from two unique species. The ensamble style highlights the diversity of Oaxacan agave cultivation methods. Roman Rosendo maintains strict quality control throughout every production stage.

About the Brand
Agave Macho is produced in San Isidro Guishe in Miahuatlán, Oaxaca by Maestro Mezcalero Don Roman Rosendo. There, a 3,500-acre ranch serves as a collective of small palenques that have been producing mezcal together since 1931. The Agave Macho line consists of ensemble blends of estate agave varietals. All ensembles are created with a common base of 50% Espadin and a rare wild agave. Agave Macho only harvests maguey varietals that are mature so varieties are subject to availability. Agave Macho is imported and distributed by Juice Mongers in the United States.
