The product is made from 100% Espadin agave, which comes from San Dionisio Ocotepec, Oaxaca region. Mezcal Nucano produces only 100% handcrafted mezcals. Agaves are harvested from the field after 8 years of growth. This is followed by the roasting of the agaves in a cone-shaped earth oven, which lasts 4-6 days. The cooked agaves are then crushed with large stone wheels pulled by horses. Fermentation takes place in wooden barrels for 3-5 days and is followed by double distillation in copper vessels. Mezcal matures in white oak barrels for 3-12 months. Aromas of ripe pineapple, grapefruit, orange and lime. The taste has jasmine, vanilla and cinnamon.
