unique experience of a high spectrum
mezcal, strictly artisanal,
sophisticated and passionate, with

ancestral traditions: a real wonder.
Cheers and welcome!
BENDITALEGRIA is a generous
mezcal, however also grateful:
regarding its origins, its people and its
roots. Mezcal’s happiness unites and
reunites – reunites people, unites past
and present and reunites its people
with the land. For these reasons, ours
is a fair mezcal, organic and kind: a
thorough mezcal, how it should be
and how, we think, should remain –
sincere, pure.

Maturation
Ripe agaves, produce a higher taste
concentration, which leads to a superior
mezcal. For this reason, in “Benditalegria”
we let our agaves mature for longer time,
even by 12 years, just like a good mezcal
requires.
Cooking
To obtain a high quality mezcal the “hearts” of our agaves are cooked carefully before fermentation. The combustile used for cooking is crucial to define the scent of a mezcal. In Benditalegría, our subterranean ovens, covered in stones, are heated with carbon of oak wood. This gives it the smoked touch and our distintive
mezcal scent.
PROCESS
-
Grinding
The cooked heart, “mexcalli”, is grinded
to extract its juices. In “Benditalegría”
we strictly follow tradition to make a
truly artisanal mezcal. Our master
‘mezcalero’ uses stone mills and animal
strength to give it life. The result: a time
machine, a truly exceptional liquid.
Destilation
At the end, the fermented pulp is heated to
obtain alcohol through a process of
destilation. Depending on the entire
process of elaboration, the alcohol
produced can range between 40 and 60
degrees. In “Benditalegría”, we get to 48
degress with our Ensamble mezcal – with a
sturdy taste, smoked scent, high range and
exceptional quality… wonderful.
Fermentation
Agaves’ juices obtained from the grinding
are poured in wooden tubs. Within these,
water is added from a well onto the
crushed agave and this allows the
microorganisms to accomplish the
fermentation. Once again, letting this
process have the adequate cares and time
is fundamental to obtain a sublime mezcal,
like ours.
