Los Amantes Añejo is a mezcal distilled from 100% agave espadín in Tlacolula de Matamoros. The piñas, or hearts, of the agave are baked in a traditional stone oven before the juices are extracted and ground by an Egyptian-type stone mill powered by horses. The juices are then naturally fermented in wooden tubs before being double distilled. This añejo is aged for two years in mostly French oak barrels as well as some American oak barrels.
