Mezcal Vago Espadn by Emigdio Jarqun
Mezcal Artesanal | 5052% ABV (varies by batch) | 750 mL

Process & Profile

Mezcal Vago Espadn by Emigdio Jarqun is crafted in the village of Miahuatln, Oaxaca, using 100% agave Espadn. The agaves are wood-roasted in an underground earthen oven, milled with a traditional horse-drawn tahona, and naturally fermented in open-air wooden vats using wild yeasts. Distillation takes place in small copper pot stills, resulting in a bold, terroir-driven spirit. Bottled at true artisanal strength (often above 50% ABV), each batch varies slightly, showcasing the seasonal and environmental influences of the production year.
