The unaged Joven format lets the Espadín agave character shine through.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe river-rock stone horno is a particularly traditional roasting approach, distinct from the more common conical earthen pit ovens elsewhere in Oaxaca. The natural-yeast open-air fermentation in pine tanks lets the local microflora contribute to the final mezcal character, with the long 15–20 day fermentation cycle building structural complexity. Lo Veras’ Joven is carefully crafted to fill the glass with flavor without overpowering a cocktail.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eLocation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mezcal Artesanal — Espadín Joven (unaged)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eRoasting:\u003c\/strong\u003e River-rock stone horno, pine wood, 3–5 days\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMilling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Horse-drawn tahona\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFermentation:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15–20 days, natural airborne yeasts, open-air pine tanks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eDistillation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Double-distilled, small copper still\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":"Lo Veras","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42904197824583,"sku":"816136020450","price":61.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0687\/0640\/2375\/files\/mezcal-veras-joven.jpg?v=1782422807","url":"https:\/\/bourbonnest.com\/products\/lo-veras-mezcal-espadin-joven","provider":"Bourbon Nest","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
