Mezcal Calenda is an exquisite mezcal hailing from the heart of Oaxaca, Mexico – a region renowned for its centuries-old tradition of mezcal production. This mezcal is made from the Espadín agave, which is prized for its unique flavour and versatility in mezcal production. Produced using traditional techniques, Mezcal Calenda offers an authentic experience that reflects the flavours of the Oaxacan region.

Mezcal Calenda is produced in small batches, with the agave hearts slowly roasted in underground ovens. This traditional technique ensures that the mezcal develops its characteristic smoky and earthy notes, which are typical of mezcal production in Oaxaca. After roasting, the agave is fermented and then distilled in copper stills, resulting in a pure and balanced mezcal characterised by its complexity and depth.
