Clase Azul Mezcal San Luis Potosí
Joven Mezcal | 43% ABV (86 Proof) | 750 mL | Additive-Free
Process & Profile
Clase Azul Mezcal San Luis Potosí is a premium Joven mezcal crafted from 100% Agave Salmiana, a variety native to the semi-desert slopes and plains of San Luis Potosí, Mexico. The agave is slow-cooked in traditional domed masonry ovens, then crushed using a Chilean mill. The fermentation process utilizes "agua miel," rainwater collected atop the agave piñas, imparting unique flavors.
