Grown in calcareous soils in Central Mexican plateau in the state of San Luis Potos, Agave Salmiana "Green Giant" takes 8 years to reach maturity. The semi-arid climate of the region and wild agave gives way to lively flavors of crisp vegetation and citrus. The production process of our Mezcal Machetazo Salmiana 45% differs from the common cooking because these pi±as are cooked through vaporization above ground in ovens allowing the flavor not to be smoky. The sloped construction of the distillery’s floor ensures consistent fluidity as the liquid from the cooked agaves trickles down through by way of gravity.

Mezcal Machetazo by Mayalen follows a traditional mezcal production process that has been passed down through generations. The brand Machetazo offers different varieties from 3 states in Mexico: Guerrero, Oaxaca and San Luis Potos. The name of our mezcal symbolizes a part of the complex and labor intensive process behind the mezcal production. With a swing of the machete or machetazo, our mezcal masters mark the beginning of the adventure behind the making of this mystical spirit.
