Desolas is an artisanal mezcal made from 100% Salmiana agave from San Luis Potosi, Mexico. Salmiana agave, or green maguey, is also known as the “green giant” due to its enormous size. This low-yielding variety, which also takes 25 years to mature, requires careful handling and well-drained, sandy soil. Its grassy, herbal and botanical character are a product of the arid air and chalky soil of San Luis Potosi. Since in this region the pinas are not cooked underground, but in above ground “hornos,” for a mezcal with a lower smoke aroma, this fresh character shines through with particular grace.
