Discover Cenizo Colonial Temoaya, a distinctive mezcal crafted in the heart of San Miguel Temoaya, Mexico, by master producer Enrique de la Cruz. Drawing from the robust spirit of maguey Cenizo, or agave Duranguensis, this expression captures the raw essence of its highland origins. Each bottle holds 750 ml of this 43% ABV spirit, ready to elevate your collection at $81.99.

Enrique's dedication shines through every step of creation. The agave meets its first transformation in an underground oven fueled by wood, where flames coax out deep flavors from the earth. Hand-milled with machetes, the piñas yield to human precision before fermentation begins in ground-recessed wooden vessels, alive with wild yeast that shapes its wild character.

Distillation unfolds in the revered alembique viejo style from Durango, a "Filipino" heir to Oaxacan clay pots. Picture a copper vessel nestled in a mud-brick hearth above dancing fire, crowned by an inverted wooden cone of staves banded with metal. Vapors rise and channel through a hollow log, cooling in a tank coiled with copper—pure tradition yielding liquid poetry.

Sip Cenizo Colonial Temoaya and let fruit-forward vibrancy unfold, laced with fresh earth, a spark of chili pepper, oregano whispers, and a subtle smoke trailing the finish.
