Detailed Description

Cuixe agave are known for their height, shape and flavor profile — they grow up to 10 feet fall and resemble long tree trunks with narrow piñas situated at the top of the agave. In addition, the piñas have sugar levels around 25%, making them incredibly sweet and flavorful. Once the agave have matured for 13 to 15 years, Aquilino roasts the trunk of the plant together with the piña for approximately four days. The agave pulp from the Cuixe agave is mixed together with a small portion of the agave pulp from the Espadin agave, and fermented using natural yeasts. Then, the wash is twice distilled before each batch is bottled by hand.
