AGAVE AMERICANA AUGUSTIFOLIA
VAR. OAXACENSIS
The species Agave Americana variety Oaxacensis is rarely found in US, typically only found as mezcal
from the Arroqueo plant. It is a giant plant, growing up to 10 feet wide and dwarfng mezcaleros
whom care for it for up to 20 years. Similarly, mezcals produced from this plants also have giant favors
of blue cheese, citrus, and other intense qualities. This species is found most commonly in Oaxaca and
Puebla, but weve visited Jalisco mezcaleros who are producing a local spirit, Tuxca, from them as well.

AGAVE CUPREATA
A squattier agave with large, fat leaves, the cupreata is a treasured agave in the states of
Michoacn and Guerrero where it grows wild and is cultivated from seed by a few mezcaleros. It also
grows in a small region of Oaxaca called the Mixteca Alta region. Among the most beautiful agaves, the
Cupreata has delicate, bright quality that is fruitier than most. It is also named Papalom in Nahuatl,
the language of the Aztecs, after the butterfy (papalotl). Rare in the US, the availablity of mezcals
produced from Cupreata may depend largely on the stability of the Michoacn and Guerrero states.

AGAVE maximiliana
With a range further to the North than most distilled agaves, Agave Maximiliana grows from Jalisco,
where it is distilled into Raicilla, a coastal agave spirit, further inland to the states of Guanajuato,
Zacatecas, Durango and north to Sinaloa, Chihuahua, and Sonora. The favor of this varietal seems
extremely dependant upon the terroir where it is grown and fermented. Sour along the coast and acidic
in the North, Lechugilla in particular seems to vary greatly...especially when fermented in cow skin and
distilled in a modifed truck radiator.

AGAVE MARMORATA
Scattered across the landscapes of Oaxaca, Morelos, the State of Mxico, Puebla, Michoacn, and
bordering Jalisco and Colima to the west and Veracruz to the east, Marmorata has a wide distribution
throughout central Mexico. However, the most commonly distilled varietal of Marmorata, Tepeztate,
remains uncommon because of its larger size and tendency to grow at high altitudes. Tepeztate mezcal
is generally sweeter, with banana and tropical fruit favors.

AGAVE KARWINSKII
Structured different than other agave species, the Agave Karwinwkiis pia grows upright on top
of short stalk of denser pia composition. Both the pia and stalk may be harvested, roasted, and
fermented together. Because of this elongated body, the Karwinskii has a less rounded and fruity
pia, resulting in mezcals that are extremely dry and tannic, especially when stalks are included in the
process. Found in a very limited geographic region of Oaxaca and Puebla, these agaves are uncommon,
but quickly gathering a cult following among mezcal freaks worldwide.

AGAVE POTATORUM
Potato rum? Sounds good to us, but Agave Potatorum is actually the biological classifcation of perhaps
the nobalist of agaves - Tobal! Sweet, complex and with a fnish youll taste tomorrow. One taste of
tobal is often an awakening moment for newcomers to mezcal. Rare because of their preference for
shady and rocky terrain, Tobal can be diffcult to fnd. But, the perseverence of Tobal should be
inspiring - their roots can even break through limestone rock! Their small size yields very little precious
mezcal to go around, however. So sip sparingly and with respect...Tobal is a privledge.

spanning from Oaxaca in the south to Sonora in the north. These mezcals are the most foral and
delicate of any on this list. The plants themselves are quite large, however, with diamter reaching 8 feet
across. The species have a preference for foothills and pine forests.

AGAVE AMERICANA ANGUSTIFOLIA
If youve had mezcal in the US prior to 2010, its likely you had Espadn, or Agave Americana
Angustifolia. Its even diffcult to name examples of mezcals that werent Espadn-based and available
in the early 2000s (Del Maguey Tobala is the only one we can think of). It is easy to understand why -
Espadn is the perfect agave to showcase the artistry of the traditional mezcal process. It is bold enough
to balance mezcals earthy, smokey favor but is also a hearty plant easily cultivated by mezcaleros.

AGAVE TEQUILANA
Most notably known for the production of tequila, Agave Tequilana is also distilled by mezcaleros wtih
traditional mezcal process, creating a spirit that more accurately resembles a predecesor to todays
modern tequilas. The Tequilana Weber-based mezcals from Oaxaca are particularly interesting, since
the species does not naturally grow in the state but was introduced over the past few decades to meet
demand for tequila production in Jalisco. Since Oaxaca is not one of 5 states licensed to produce
tequila, such activity is illegal and indicative of the tequila industrys hypocrisy.

PECHUGA & DISTILLERY INFUSIONS
Pechuga is mezcal that is infused with fruits and spices and re-distilled with a piece of meat, most
commonly chicken breast suspended in the still. The suspended breast or other meat acts as a natural
flter the mezcal passes through and balances the fruit and other spices. While this may sound unusual,
it is refective of the nature of the mezcalero as a farmer. Today, as mezcal becomes a more global spirit,
the concept of infusing and redistilling mezcal is an ongoing experiment with other tasty results.

ENSAMBLES
The Ensemble is an art rather than an agave. Its a technique used by the most skilled mezcaleros that
allows them to assemble different agave varietals prior to roasting for one single batch. Its their
knowledge of the raw material and the way it reacts to all the different stages of production in
conjunction with the conceptualization of the fnal product that really gives them the ability to be brave,
instinctual and masters of their craft. and somehow create something beautiful all at the same time.

BACANORA & SOTOL
Outside of the more commonly known spirits of mezcal and tequila, there are other agave spirits
prduced in Mexico as well. Bacanora is a legally recognized agave spirit from the State of Sonora.
Traditionally, it is crafted in a manner similar to mezcal, but the terroir from the region results in spirits
that are exceptionally acidic. Sotol, on the other hand, is not technicially an agave spirit. Instead, the
Sotol plant is a an Agavaceae, or cousin of agave, and it has a intensely grassy favor unique to this
spirit. It is formally recognized in the states of Chihuahua, Coahuila, and Durango.

BLANCO TEQUILA
Tequila, the most well-known of agave spirits, is made from the Tequilana Weber, or Blue Agave,
species of agave. Traditionally, the pinas of the plant are roasted in brick ovens, crushed, fermented,
and distilled. Like any agave plant, the area in which the Blue Agaves are grown has a signifcant impact
on their favor. We only serve tequilas at The Pastry War from producers frmly devoted to tradition.
A Blanco Tequila is a tequila that is unaged and is the purest expression of Blue Agave.
REPOSADO TEQUILA
A tequila labeled reposado means that the spirit was rested in barrels for 2 to 11 months.
Reposado tequilas are best when they show a balance of wood and agave.

AEJO TEQUILA
A tequila labeled anejo means that the spirit was rested in barrels from 1-3 years. Anejo tequilas vary greatly
depending on the type of wood and time rested. The wood is playing a more dominant role, but the agave
should not be lost during the aging process.
EXTRA AEJO TEQUILA
A relatively new classifcation, only created in 2006, Extra Anejo denotes a tequila that is aged in barrels for
more than 3 years. In these cases, the wood is most dominant. Typically, we fnd Extra Anejo Tequila to have
abandoned the agaves favor, but a few prized bottles are stunning examples of years of care and dedication.
