Mineral Character from Santa María Zoquitlán and Dry Profile
The Mezcal El Jolgorio Karwinskii Special Edition 750 ml belongs to the special release line of El Jolgorio, created by the renowned Casa Mezcalera Cortés, a mezcal family from Oaxaca with over a century of tradition. The name “jolgorio” evokes the parties of the Oaxacan towns, and this bottle is made to celebrate them. It is made with Karwinskii Agave (Agave karwinskii), a slow-growing species that can take up to 14 years to mature and represents a very small fraction of the agave grown in Oaxaca. It is distilled by master mezcalero Ignacio “Don Chucho” Parada in Santa María Zoquitlán, Oaxaca, Mexico, a community located between two rivers and renowned for its uncommon agaves. It is a dry profile mezcal, with no added sugars or flavorings, distilled in a copper still, produced in very small batches, and presented in a black glass bottle.
