A Unique Blend of Agave Varietals from Oaxaca
Mezcal Marca Negra Ensamble is a complex and layered mezcal, blending Agave Angustifolia, Karwinskii, and Rhodacantha to create a balanced yet dynamic expression. Produced in La Noria, Ejutla, Oaxaca, this mezcal showcases the artisanal expertise of Maestro Mezcalero Basilio Pacheco. Aged for 9-12 years before harvest, it is crafted using traditional stone wheel (tahona) milling and plate distillation, resulting in an elegant mineral, herbal, and fruity character. Bottled at 47-49% ABV, this limited-production mezcal is both bold and refined.

2. How should I drink Mezcal Marca Negra Ensamble?
Enjoy neat, at room temperature, or with a few drops of water to fully appreciate its aromatic depth.
3. What food pairs well with this mezcal?
Pairs beautifully with grilled seafood, roasted nuts, aged cheeses, and dark chocolate.
4. Is this a smoky mezcal?
It has a subtle smokiness, balanced with mineral, herbal, and fruit-forward notes.
5. Is this a limited-edition release?
Yes, due to the small-batch nature of ensamble production and the extended agave maturation period, this mezcal is produced in limited quantities.
