About La Leyenda 100% Full Term Blue Agave Mezcal

La Leyenda is an authentic mezcal that’s crafted on a private family farm in Zacatecas, Mexico. The family has been producing mezcal for 4 generations using blue Weber agaves that yield between 7 and 10 bottles per plant. The blue Weber agaves are harvested once they are mature, which takes upwards of 7 years. The jimadores cut the plants using a coa knife, revealing the heart (piña). Then, the piñas are steam-cooked in a stainless steel autoclave for 8 hours before letting them rest for 12 hours. Once they are cooled, they are crushed and strained. The agave juice ferments naturally for 72 hours before finally being double-distilled and bottled at 80 proof. Produced in annual vintages, this mezcal stays true to the rich legacy and history of the famous spirit. The Blanco Mezcal won a Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2021.

About Mezcal

Mezcal is a distilled spirit made from roasted agave plants between two days and two weeks, which gives it a distinct smokey flavor.
What scotch is for whisk(e)y, mezcal is for tequila.

It can be made from different types of agave in different parts of Mexico, but most of it (60%) comes from the state of Oaxaca. Mezcal offers a large diversity of flavor profiles and ranges between 40 and 55% ABV.

The mezcal opens with earthy aromas, apple vinegar, and lemon zest. Look for fresh agave, tropical pineapple, and banana notes on the palate, leading to a smooth and crisp finish with a gentle earthiness.
