Discover El Silencio Mezcal Ensamble:
El Silencio Mezcal Ensamble is a meticulously crafted spirit that embodies the rich tapestry of Oaxacan tradition. This particular mezcal is an ensamble, meaning it’s a blend of different types of agave plants, which in this case includes the EspadĂn, Tobasiche, and Mexicano varietals. Each type of agave contributes its unique flavor profile to the final product.
The EspadĂn agave imparts a classic mezcal character with sweet and fruity notes that provide a solid foundation for the blend. Tobasiche adds an intriguing herbal complexity with hints of mint and thyme, while Mexicano rounds out the ensemble with its earthy tones and subtle citrus highlights.
Distilled using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, El Silencio Mezcal Ensamble is produced by master mezcaleros who roast the agave in earthen pits lined with volcanic rock. This traditional method imbues the spirit with its signature smokiness—a hallmark of authentic mezcal.
After roasting, the agave hearts are crushed using a tahona wheel before undergoing natural fermentation in open-air vats. The resulting liquid is then double distilled in copper stills to achieve a smooth yet complex flavor profile.
Producer Notes: Casa Silencio
Casa Silencio is a unique drinks producer nestled in the heart of Mexico, known for its rich tradition in crafting exquisite mezcal. This spirit, deeply rooted in Mexican culture, is made from the agave plant, which is native to the region. Casa Silencio takes pride in using time-honored methods to create their mezcal, ensuring each sip carries the essence of tradition and the land’s distinct flavors.
The process begins with harvesting agave plants that have matured for several years. These plants are then cooked slowly in underground pits lined with hot stones, giving mezcal its signature smoky taste. After cooking, the agave hearts are crushed and fermented naturally before being distilled.
Casa Silencio’s most famous drink is their artisanal mezcal. Unlike tequila, which comes from a specific type of agave and region, mezcal can be made from over 30 types of agave and is known for its complex flavors ranging from sweet to earthy and smoky.

Tequila Varieties
First produced in the 16th century, when Spanish conquerors ran out of cognac during their expedition to the New World, tequila is made by distilling the juice from the heart of a blue agave native to Jalisco, Mexico. Tequila comes in a variety of colors, from the transparent and unrestrained, known as Blanco, to the darkest aged in Reposado, Anejo and Extra Anejo vats. Popular as a main ingredient in refreshing margaritas, it is also commonly consumed pure or with the addition of lemon and salt.
