Paquera Mezcal Joven 100% Maguey Barril

A vibrant joven mezcal that showcases the distinctive character of maguey barril, offering a fresh yet complex profile shaped by tradition. Earthy and expressive, it balances herbal intensity, light smoke, and natural sweetness for a lively, authentic sipping experience.

Paquera Mezcal is crafted in Oaxaca using traditional methods that honour the heritage of mezcal production. Made from 100% maguey barril, a rarer agave varietal known for its unique flavour profile, the spirit is produced through underground pit roasting, natural fermentation, and artisanal distillation. This hands-on approach preserves the agave’s individuality, resulting in a mezcal that reflects both terroir and craftsmanship.
