Picture
Mezcal San Cosme, borrows its name from Saint Cosmas who, alongside his twin brother, Damian, is worshiped as the patron saint of doctors. Together, they defied death on several occasions, and miracles are attributed to them even after death, where they have appeared in dreams and healed those who prayed to them.
Another magical story is that which surrounds Mezcal San Cosme, from its origins in the beautiful Mexican state of Oaxaca to the experience of tasting its unforgettable exotic flavor. Mezcal is a unique spirit, and its taste and craftsmanship preserve Mexico’s precolonial legacy. This is a delicious beverage that has shared its story with the country for more than 2,400 years.
The careful harvest of agave crops and the sweet aromas that arise when this elegant cactus is fermented in wood-fired boilers are but a few of the elements involved in the age-old craft of mezcal production.

​Description
100% from agave Espadin.
The pinas (heart of the agave plant) are baked in rock ovens (large, 8-12ft diameter/6ft deep, rock-lined conical pits in the ground), and then mashed in a large stone wheel attached to a post that is pulled around by horse, donkey or mule. Once mashed completely, the product is placed in large wooden vats to be fermented for two days. The distillation is in cooper pot still, Mezcal San Cosme has double distillation, taking out the heads and tails.
Agave’s plant average age: Nine year old pinas. White Mezcal is un aged, is also called young because it is bottled after filtration and proof.
