Found at high elevations, they often grow directly out of sheer rock walls and cliff faces, giving shade to smaller agave (such as Tobalá) growing nearby. With huge leaves (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003epencas\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e) lolling out, their brilliant, red teeth serrating a soft and textured flesh, the Tepeztate is arguably the most varietally consistent agave in distillation. Notes of green bananas, delicate flowers, bright bell peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and underripe melon rinds make La Medida both a benchmark example, and an especially electrifying one.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003eMezcal produced in Miahuatlán, Oaxaca\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaestro Mezcalero Ismael García Sánchez\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003e100% Tepeztate (\u003cem\u003eAgave marmorata\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003eCooked in a conical earthen oven and crushed using a traditional stone tahona mill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003eFermented in open-air wooden tanks (\u003cem\u003etinas\u003c\/em\u003e)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003eDistilled twice using copper pot stills with hybrid \u003cem\u003erefrescadera\u003c\/em\u003e condenser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003eNotes of green bananas, delicate flowers, bright bell peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and underripe melon rinds make this a benchmark example of the variety and an especially electrifying one—like plugging your mezcal into a light socket, in the best possible way.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"ewa-rteLine\"\u003e47% ABV (ABV may vary batch to batch)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Skurnik","offers":[{"title":"200ml","offer_id":42765518962734,"sku":null,"price":36.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/onekourtwine.com\/products\/mezcal-la-medida-tepeztate-ismael-oaxaca-mexico","provider":"One Kourt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
