Xicaru Silver 102 Mezcal 750ml

Mezcalero Fernando Santibañez already made one of Oaxaca's most beloved mezcals with the classic Xicaru Silver. The 102 is his tribute to the old masters — the generation of mezcaleros who prized high-proof expressions for their concentrated, uncompromising character.

Same grandmother's recipe. Same small-batch palenque in Santiago Matatlán. Same 100% Espadín agave, pit-roasted over native mesquite and ocote wood, tahona crushed, wild yeast fermented in open pine vats, and double distilled in copper pot stills. But bottled at 51% ABV — raw, uncut, and unapologetically expressive.

At 102 proof, everything is amplified. The roasted agave is bolder, the smoke more present, the minerality sharper. A rush of cooked agave and citrus zest on the nose, with earthy depth underneath. The palate is rich and mouth-coating — smoke, white pepper, wild herbs, and a long, clean finish that builds rather than fades.

This is mezcal the way it was meant to be experienced. No dilution. No compromise. Just the full, honest expression of agave, fire, and tradition.
