CAMAZOTZ 'Oaxacan' Sugar Cane Rum (Aguardiente de Cana) Bottle (70cl) 48%abv (los)

Description

Camazotz is a hand-made raw sugar cane rum produced in the eastern highlands of Oaxaca, Mexico.

Made by Maestro Leoncio Gaspar in the Sierra Mixe, approximately 5 hours NE from the capital and locally known as Aguardiente de Caña, the juice of the sugar cane, grown by the family, without pesticides, is raw pressed by hand, then fermented in open barrels using only wild airborne yeasts. Distilled to proof in small batches of up to 300 ltrs using a traditional alembic copper pot still, the liquid is transported by mules 5km up the mountainside ready for collection. Bottled un-aged with no additional ingredients, the resulting rum is expressive from the first sip.

"A spirit true to its raw ingredients; vegetal, sweet, and complex from the first sip"
