Derrumbes - No. 3 San Luis Potosi - Mezcal Salmiana Crassispina - 44.30%
Derrumbes is a renowned company specializing in the production of an exceptional artisanal mezcal, located in the heart of Mexico. Each bottle perfectly embodies the soul and identity of a mezcal-producing region, carefully highlighting ancestral traditions, the unique terroir, and the characteristic style specific to each geographical area. These regions are distinguished by a remarkable diversity of soils and climates, thus offering ideal conditions for cultivating numerous agave species and for adopting traditional production techniques, ensuring authenticity and superior quality.
San Luis Potosí No. 3 is an exceptional mezcal crafted in the famous region of Charcas, San Luis Potosí. Agaves of the Salmiana Crassispina variety, rigorously selected, are harvested at maturity before being slowly cooked in a stone and black oak wood masonry oven, imparting this mezcal with deep and typical smoky aromas. Sugar extraction is carried out using a traditional tahona – a massive stone mill – which crushes the roasted piñas, the agave hearts, ensuring optimal preservation of natural flavors. Fermentation takes place naturally in masonry vats, promoting the development of complex aromatic profiles. Distillation, carefully conducted in copper stills, precedes a maturation of at least 60 days in glass tanks, guaranteeing a harmonious balance between intensity and finesse.
