Mezcal Vago Madre Cuixe is an artisanal joven mezcal made from wild Madrecuixe agave by mezcalero Emigdio Jarquín in Oaxaca — a prized expression of one of the slow-growing karwinskii varietals.
Madrecuixe is a wild varietal of agave karwinskii, with a tall columnar form and a long maturation that concentrates mineral, herbal, and earthy character in the spirit. Distilled in a traditional palenque with no additives, this Vago bottling carries Emigdio Jarquín’s craft, and like all Mezcal Vago it is joven (young) and clear, with full production detail on the label.
