Father Don Lorenzo and son Eduardo produce the mezcal while Mother Dona Florentina does the bottling and daughter Graciela handles the marketing. They family produces mezcal using the method ancestral, a very rustic method of distillation utilizing clay stills and bamboo tubing. Barril is a subspecies of agave in the Karwinskii family whose piñas are tall like a palm tree. It is famous for being intensely earthy, herbal and full-bodied.

Fruity nose of orange, strawberry, melon, earthy clay, black pepper and touches of vanilla and smoke. Rich and sweet on the palate with green agave, clay, black pepper and smoke. Long spicy finish.
from the mezcals i have tasted, this one was my favourite when I was looking for something traditional. no need for some fancy designs and names to try to convince you.
not very smokey. did not go through the smoking process. so is more straight up espadin. not my favorite
Beautiful herbal, wild flavors in here with balanced citrus and smoke. Pretty strong. 93
This was a really excellent mezcal, in fact I ended up having two glasses of it.
If I remember correctly this earthy mezcal was among my favorite in Mexico City
