Cantaro Chumpeate Espadin

Oaxaca

Cantaro Chumpeate Espadin is a Joven mezcal from Oaxaca. Celerino Garcia Garcia produces this spirit in San Luis Amatlan using Angustifolia agave. The mezcalero mills the hearts with a shredder before distilling in copper stills. This unaged expression retains its clear character without wood contact. The bottle holds between 48 and 50 percent alcohol by volume. Each step honors the specific terroir of the region. The copper stills allow for precise temperature control during distillation. This method preserves the delicate floral notes inherent to the agave. The result is a clean and vibrant spirit ready for consumption.
