INFO

Espadn is the most prevalent species of agave in Mexico and reaches maturity earlier (7-12 yrs) than most other agaves. It also grows to be very large with a high sugar content, making it perfect for mezcal production. However, only the most unique lots of mezcal espadn crafted by the Casa Corts collective of mezcaleros are bottled under the El Jolgorio brand, oftentimes vintage batches that were either reserved for resting, or simply “forgotten” and tucked away in the corner of the palenque.
