Cutwater Mezcal Reposado

Cutwater Mezcal Repo is a unique and captivating expression of Mezcal, handcrafted in the rugged, sun-scorched terrain of Durango, Mexico. This mezcal pays homage to the untamed beauty of the region, where the resilient Maguey Cenizo, also known as Agave durangensis, thrives. In this unforgiving landscape, scorpions and owls, symbols of defiance, solitude, and wisdom, find their home, echoing the tenacity of the agave plant.

The production process of Cutwater Mezcal Repo is steeped in tradition and authenticity. The agave hearts are roasted in traditional volcanic rock pit ovens, infusing the spirit with a subtle hint of smoke that beautifully complements its rich agave character. Open fermentation in the wild, unspoiled environment allows indigenous yeasts to naturally ferment the agave juice, lending the mezcal a unique and terroir-driven quality. To further enhance its complexity, the spirit is aged in Cutwater Whiskey barrels, which are meticulously transported from the San Diego distillery to Durango. This aging process imparts delicate notes of vanilla and oak, creating a harmonious balance with the agave's natural flavors.
