Desolas Mezcal blanco is produced from the 100% Salmiana Agave, known as the “Green Giant” or “Green Maguey” due to the plant’s enormous size. The Salmiana has a low yield of liquid as compared to the size. For this reason careful artistry is needed to produce mezcal from this agave species. The piñas are cooked in above ground ovens known as “hornos” instead of an underground pit, resulting in a mezcal with a low smoke aroma.
