When security cameras alerted the Santanera team to a deadly wildfire, blazing through the parcel dubbed "El Llano Grande," a desperate race against time began to harvest the seven-year-old maguey before they hardened from the fire. Miraculously, the majority of the agave survived, and the group decided that this unique, scorched agave would be the centerpiece of their next annual Organic release: Batch "Ceniza" (meaning "ash").
