Production Notes

The true majesty of The Lost Explorer Salmiana Mezcal lies in its meticulous production process. The spirit is crafted from 12-year-old agaves, which are traditionally harvested and cooked in an earthen pit over volcanic rock. Once cooked, the agaves are crushed using a tahona, fermented in wooden vats, and finally, distilled in copper pots. Toiling in sync with nature, all under the watchful eyes of skilled maestros, this labor-intensive process is an ode to age-old traditions and sustainable practices. This authentic method results in a Mezcal that perfectly encapsulates Mexico’s spirit, and it’s now available for online order, rendering browsing and shopping an exciting adventure.
