Description: Mezcal Vago Elote by Hijos de Aquilino GarcĂa is a distinctive expression that pays homage to two of Mexico's most cherished staples: agave and corn. Crafted in Candelaria YegolĂ©, Oaxaca, this mezcal is produced by Temo and Mateo GarcĂa, sons of the late maestro mezcalero Aquilino GarcĂa LĂłpez, who continue their family's artisanal legacy.
This unique mezcal begins with 100% EspadĂn agave, which is traditionally roasted, fermented, and distilled. What sets Elote apart is the infusion of roasted corn between the second and third distillations, imparting a subtle yet impactful layer of flavor. The result is a spirit that offers aromas of smoky toasted corn and dry river stones, with a palate that reveals sweet wood tones, honeycomb, green tropical fruits, and a gentle smokiness. Bottled at approximately 50% ABV, it delivers a robust yet smooth drinking experience.Â
Mezcal Vago Elote is ideal for sipping neat, allowing enthusiasts to appreciate its intricate flavors and the craftsmanship behind its creation. Its unique profile also makes it a versatile component in cocktails, adding depth and character. For those seeking an authentic and innovative mezcal experience, Elote stands as a testament to the GarcĂa family's dedication to tradition and quality.
