Los Danzantes

Los Danzantes: These hand crafted Mezcals, distilled in copper potstills are produced by Master distiller Joel Antonio Cruz Jr. from the Espadin agave in the region of Santiago Matatlan, Tlacolula, Oaxaca. Alipus: These mezcals are 100% agave produced in remote pueblos in Oaxaca's noted Mezcal region, via craft production from artisanal family distilleries. The agaves are wood-roasted in palenques (conical below-ground ovens), with the juice extracted by slow stone-milling (tahona). Fermentation takes place with native yeasts in open wood vats and is double-distilled in small wood fire copper potstills.
