Se Busca Joven is the unaged expression from Se Busca Mezcal, produced at the Lopes Sosa Palenque in San Juan del Río, Oaxaca. 'Joven' — meaning 'young' — indicates the mezcal is bottled directly after distillation without any oak cask maturation, presenting the pure, unmodified character of the distilled spirit. The mezcal is made from 100% Espadín agave roasted in earthen pit ovens over wood fire — the source of the characteristic smoky agave character — before open-air wild yeast fermentation in wooden vats and double distillation in copper pot stills. As a joven, the expression captures the most direct expression of the agave and production terroir of San Juan del Río. Bottled at 40% ABV.

Se Busca Mezcal is handcrafted at the Lopes Sosa Palenque in San Juan del Río, Oaxaca, Mexico — a family palenque where the Lopes Sosa family has been producing mezcal for over five decades. 'Se Busca' — Spanish for 'Wanted' — was inspired by the battle cry of women who fought in the Mexican Revolution; the brand honours their bravery and the rich cultural heritage of Oaxaca. The mezcal is produced by maestros mezcaleros Rodolfo and Mary Lopez Sosa using 100% Espadín agave grown in the mountains of Oaxaca, following traditional artisanal production methods throughout.
