Madrecuishe (Agave karwinskii) is a long-stemmed wild agave varietal with thick fibers — prized for the elegant, mineral, and slightly earthier mezcal it produces compared to the more common Espadin.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKarwinskii varietals like Madrecuishe take 12–20 years to mature and are wild-harvested rather than cultivated. The longer maturation produces a more concentrated, mineral-driven, and structurally distinct spirit. Cruz de Fuego’s fully traditional production preserves these wild varietal characteristics through the earthen oven, stone tahona, wood fermentation, and copper pot still distillation chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Margarita Blas \u0026amp; Carlos Mendez (Productores del Buen Agave), Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mezcal Artesanal — Madrecuishe (Agave karwinskii, wild-harvested)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earthen-oven cooked, stone tahona, wood-fermented, copper pot double-distilled\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBrowse all \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/mezcal\"\u003emezcal at Wooden Cork\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cruz de Fuego","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42904200740935,"sku":"SK 816136021327","price":112.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/CruzFuegoMezcal2.jpg?v=1782422904","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/cruz-de-fuego-madrecuishe","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
