Espadín Capón, crafted from the agave Angustifolia variety known as Espadín, represents a distinctive approach to mezcal production. This mezcal is made from agaves that have undergone the «capado» process, wherein the quiotes or stalks of the Espadín agaves are removed, allowing the plants to continue growing in the field for nearly a year.
By eliminating the stalks, the agaves focus their energy on sugar accumulation within their hearts, resulting in a higher concentration of sugars. These sugars, when later distilled, impart a sweeter and more complex flavor profile to the resulting Espadín Capón mezcal.
This extended maturation process, coupled with the concentrated sugars, contributes to a mezcal with nuanced floral and fruity undertones

In the depths of the valleys of oaxaca, Mexico,
the ancestral tribe xochagual worshipped the enigmatic Chagual, a being endowed with supernatural powers who mediated between humans and gods. It was believed to dwell in the deepest caves of the mountain and was both a benevolent protector and unleasher of natural forces when harmony was disturbed. The xochaguals honored it with offerings and ceremonies, turning it into an immortal legend that teaches respect and connection with nature.
