Amaras Mezcal Cupreata - Item Code: 08902
Discover Amaras Mezcal Cupreata:
Amaras Mezcal Cupreata is a unique spirit that showcases the rich biodiversity of Mexico’s terroir. It is crafted from the wild Cupreata agave, which grows at high altitudes in the Guerrero and Michoacan states. This particular agave species imparts a distinctive flavor profile to the mezcal, characterized by deep notes of sweet fruit and light touches of tropical nuances. The production process involves traditional methods such as roasting in earthen pits and natural fermentation, which further enhance its complex taste.
On tasting, Amaras Mezcal Cupreata reveals an intriguing balance between sweetness and smokiness. The initial palate is greeted with flavors of ripe pineapple and banana, followed by subtle hints of cocoa and aniseed. As it evolves on the tongue, it introduces a gentle smoky undertone that complements rather than overpowers its fruity essence. The finish is long-lasting with a pleasant warmth that lingers on the palate. This mezcal’s complexity makes it not only enjoyable to sip neat but also versatile for mixology applications.

Mezcal Varieties
In Mexico, mezcal (also known as mezcal de agave) is a distilled alcoholic beverage derived from the agave plant, a slow-growing succulent that is native to Mexico and parts of Texas and is used to make mezcal. Mezcal was first produced in the 16th century by the conquistadors, who, as invading armies are wont to do in hostile territory, made getting drunk a top priority and experimented with distilling whiskey from whatever they could find in the area they were occupying.
The history of mezcal-making evolved over time to become an essential element of Mexican culture, but it wasn't until Prohibition drove thirsty American visitors to Mexico in pursuit of a legal buzz that mezcal became widely known to drinkers in the United States and around the world.
Mezcal can be prepared from any of the more than 30 different types of agave. Tobalá, tobaziche, tepeztate, arroqueo, and espadn are the most frequent agave varieties used for mezcal production. Espadn is the most prevalent agave variety and accounts for up to 90 percent of all mezcal production.
