Distillation & Provenance

Crafted only for our premium spirits

Distillation

Mezcal Union Uno Joven is produced from a blend of 80% agave espadin and 20% agave cirial — both harvested from San Baltazar Guelavila, Oaxaca, after eight to fourteen years of growth. The harvested piñas are roasted in a conical underground rock oven using Encino (oak) wood and pre-selected river stones for three to five days, then ground using a Chilean tahona stone. The crushed agave fibres and juice are fermented naturally before double distillation in copper alembic stills. The 'Joven' (young) designation indicates the spirit is unaged — bottled directly after distillation to capture the bright, fruit-forward, lightly smoked agave character. 100% artisanal, handmade. Bottled at 46% ABV.

Provenance

Mezcal Unión is a cooperative mezcal brand based in Oaxaca, Mexico, founded on a fair-trade model that unites Zapotec mezcalero families from the Sierra of Oaxaca. The brand currently works with twenty distilleries spanning eight villages, offering small-scale producers a sustainable market and equitable business model. Agave for Mezcal Union Uno is grown in San Baltazar Guelavila, Oaxaca, where the agaves mature for eight to fourteen years in the Oaxacan highland environment before harvest. The Uno Joven is an unaged expression produced entirely from artisanal, handcrafted production methods.
