Amateco Ensamble Silvestres (Cucharilla & Bicuixe) Mezcal-Style Agave Spirit 96 Proof 750ml
Amateco is built around place: San Luis Amatlán, Sierra Sur, Oaxaca, where traditional production methods (conical earthen oven, native-yeast fermentation, copper pot distillation) shape spirits with honest edges and real depth.
This Ensamble Silvestres brings together two compelling plants:
- Cucharilla (Dasylirion) — often associated with bright, herbaceous, mountain-botanical character.
- Bicuixe (Karwinskii variety) — frequently described as earthy/herbal with a grounded, mineral tone.
At 96 proof / 48% ABV, it drinks with structure—aromatic lift up front, then a more mineral, lightly bitter-pleasant finish that lingers like warm stone and wild greens.
