Pierde Almas Mezcal
Mala Mia Ensamble
Mala Mia Ensamble is a mezcal ensamble from Oaxaca. Producer Saturnino Martínez Méndez blends Angustifolia, Karwinskii, and Marmorata agaves. He mills the hearts in a tahona stone before distilling them in copper stills. This specific combination creates a unique profile distinct from single-varietal expressions. The spirit comes from Santiago Matatlán and holds 42% ABV. Each bottle reflects the traditional methods of this skilled mezcalero in his home region. The copper distillation ensures a clean finish while preserving the distinct character of each agave species used in this complex blend.
