Alipus Mezcal San Balthazar Joven

Discover the rich heritage and craftsmanship of Alipus Mezcal with the San Balthazar Joven edition. Crafted in the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico, this mezcal is a testament to the tradition and passion that goes into every bottle.

San Balthazar Joven takes its name from the picturesque village where it is produced. This region is renowned for its distinct mezcal production methods, passed down through generations. The agave plants used in the production of this mezcal are grown in the high-altitude lands, resulting in a unique flavor profile that sets it apart from others.

The production process begins with harvesting mature agave plants, which are then cooked in traditional underground stone pit ovens. This slow cooking process infuses the agave hearts, known as piñas, with a smoky flavor that is characteristic of mezcal. Once cooked, the piñas are crushed and the juices are extracted, then left to ferment naturally in wooden vats for several days. This all-natural fermentation process enhances the complexity of flavors.

The resulting liquid is double distilled in copper stills, allowing the flavors to develop further while maintaining the integrity of the mezcal. Alipus Mezcal San Balthazar Joven is known for its smooth and balanced taste, with rich notes of roasted agave, subtle hints of smoke, and a pleasant herbal undertone. The palate is greeted with sweet and earthy flavors, intertwined with a touch of citrus.

This artisanal mezcal captivates both experienced and novice mezcal enthusiasts alike. Its versatility shines through, making it perfect for sipping neat, enjoying in traditional cocktails like the classic Paloma or refreshing margaritas, or even incorporating into unique culinary creations that benefit from its smoky yet vibrant personality.

Alipus Mezcal San Balthazar Joven is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the mezcaleros who craft it. With each bottle, you are not only tasting the flavors of Mexico, but also supporting a time-honored tradition that has been preserved for generations. So, immerse yourself in the world of Oaxacan mezcal with Alipus Mezcal San Balthazar Joven and indulge in an experience like no other.
