5 Sentidos - Puntas 57.1% ABV

This batch of Puntas de Espadín is the third time Cinco Sentidos has bottled and shipped "Puntas" to the U.S. This 183-liter batch is representative of what master mezcalero Eleuterio "Tio Tello" Perez Ramos and his son Eduardo "Lalo"Perez colloquially refer to as "punteado" in reference its higher alcohol content. The 183-liters of "punteado" were part of 450-liter batch of Espadín that Lalo left at a higher ABV. He made the batch by harvesting "qulotudo" Espadín (a. Angustifolia Haw) from the region and then roasting them in an underground conical oven with mesquite & oak firewood for six days. After cooking the agaves, Lalo, along with friends and family, chopped the agave into small pieces with a machete, then mashed them with large hammers made of mesquite in a wooden trough. After the crush, Lalo allowed the mash to dry-ferment in cypress sabino tanks for three days, then added well water to the tanks and allowed the fermentation to continue for an additional eight days. Upon successful fermentation, he then double-distilled the mash in a single copper alembic style still at his father's small palenque in El Nañche, Oaxaca. Distilled November 2022. Bottled December of the same year.

Cinco Sentidos ("Five Senses") originated as the house agave spirit in Oaxaca's acclaimed restaurant, "El Destilado." Our goal is to bring you uncertified nano-batch agave spirits that highlight varied production processes, agave diversity, and most importantly, the tradition and talents of the "familias magueyeras" who handcraft their spirit with rigor and esteem. Drink with Respect.
