Siete Misterios Mezcal Coyote is an artisanal expression crafted in Sola de Vega, Oaxaca, using 100% wild Coyote agave (Agave americana). This rare agave, closely related to Arroqueño, imparts a distinctive herbal character to the mezcal. Traditional production methods are employed: the agave is roasted in earthen pits, hand-milled, naturally fermented, and double-distilled in clay pot stills, resulting in a mezcal bottled at approximately 46% ABV.
