Peloton de la Meurte Espadin Mezcal

Produced by Master Mezcalero Cutberto Santiago in the village of Santiago Matatlán in Oaxaca, Pelotón De la Muerte is made from 100% agave espadín cooked in a pit oven covered with volcanic rocks. The juices from the cooked piñas are pressed using a traditional tahona, then fermented in wooden vats before being double-distilled in copper pot stills. Pelotón de la Muerte means “brigade of death” and the label depicts the flag used by insurgents during the Mexican Revolution.
