Agave

The Espadín agave (Agave angustifolia) grows along the Mezcalero Strip in Oaxaca. It is the agave that is best cultivated and, thanks to its high sugar concentration, is particularly suitable for the production of Mezcal. 10 kilograms of agave heart result in about one liter of mezcal, which we recommend especially as a beginner for connoisseurs. An agave heart of this variety can weigh up to 100 kilograms.

Almost 100% of the agaves used for Noble Coyote come from the same grower. These agaves grow in great variety and the flavors of the mezcal vary according to the plant and style of the Maestro Mezcaleros and the terroir. San Luis Amatlán - the place where the agaves for Noble Coyote are grown - is famous for its soils. This mezcal combines this unique terroir with the experience and skill of the Noble Coyote mezcaleros.

According to the Mezcalero

For a very long time, Espadín has been the most used agave for Mezcal production, mainly because of its good growth and yield for Mezcal production. Especially around the village of San Amatlán in Oaxaca, the conditions are ideal for this agave variety and give it its unmistakable character.
