The granite hillside earthen horno — carved into the rock rather than dug into earth — imparts a distinctive mineral character to the roasted agave that earthen pit expressions don't have. The horse-drawn molino extraction method preserves the agave character in a way that mechanical mills cannot replicate. The result is a mezcal with a nose of slate and minerals balanced by tropical fruit and citrus, rose petal florals, lavender, tarragon, and pea shoots — evolving into a long, pleasantly dry finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Slate and minerals balanced by tropical fruit and citrus notes, with rose petal florals, lavender, tarragon, and pea shoots\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mineral and floral complexity with the tropical fruit character of Sierra Espadin\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long and pleasantly dry\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Del Maguey Single Village Mezcal — Anastacio Cruz Antonio and sons\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eVillage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Las Milpas, above San Dionisio Ocotepec, Oaxaca\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAgave:\u003c\/strong\u003e Espadin (Agave angustifolia)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRoasting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Earthen horno carved into granite hillside\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMilling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Horse-drawn molino\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFermentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ambient microbes, open-air wooden tanks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Small copper pot stills\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\u003cscript type=\"application\/ld+json\"\u003e{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@type\":\"FAQPage\",\"mainEntity\":[{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What makes Las Milpas granite horno different?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"The earthen horno at Las Milpas is carved directly into the granite hillside rather than dug into earth.
