Product Overview
Koch El Mezcal Ancestral Maguey Espadín de Jayacatlán
From the mountains of Oaxaca comes a mezcal that embodies heritage, craftsmanship, and terroir. Koch El Mezcal Ancestral Maguey Espadín de Jayacatlán is produced in small batches using time-honored ancestral methods, preserving the artistry of mezcaleros who have perfected their craft across generations.
