Unveiling the Artistry Behind Mezcal: Crafting Authentic Mexican Spirits

Uncover the magic behind Mezcal. From the sun-kissed agave fields to the smoky richness of slow-roasting, our Mezcal embodies the authentic spirit of Mexico. In this insights post we will explore the process of how Mezcal is produced, and how we use it to craft some of the best cocktails in Glasgow.

In the heart of Mezcal Glasgow, where the rich traditions of Mexico meet the vibrant spirit of Glasgow, lies our dedication to the artistry of Mezcal. As we stand proud with the largest Mezcal selection in Scotland, let’s take a journey into the intricate process that brings this unique and revered Mexican spirit to your glass.

 

Step 1. Agave Harvesting

The journey begins in the agave fields, where the piñas, the heart of the agave plant, are carefully harvested. This meticulous process is a crucial step in ensuring the quality and authenticity of the Mezcal we proudly serve in Glasgow.

Step 2. Cooking And Fermentation

Following the harvest, the piñas undergo a transformative journey through slow-roasting. This process takes place in traditional earthen pits or ovens, infusing the Mezcal with a distinctive smokiness that sets it apart. The extracted juice then undergoes fermentation, a vital step that contributes to the complex and unique flavors that define our Mezcal.

Step 3. Distillation

The fermented agave juice is then distilled, often twice or more, to achieve the desired alcohol content and flavor profile. The expertise of our distillers ensures that every drop of Mezcal retains the essence of the agave plant and the heritage of Mexican craftsmanship.
