Espadín Capón Artisanal 750 ml


PUNTIAGUDO BATCH OO-ESP-06, Espadín Capón – 750ml
Produced by Maestro Onofre Ortiz in Bramaderos, Miahuatlán, Oaxaca
This latest release of Espadín 100% Capón carries forward the profile that Onofre Ortiz brings to every single batch he crafts in Bramaderos.
Situated in the Sierra Sur of Oaxaca, the high-altitude valleys, dry climate, and rocky terrain of Miahuatlán provide the ideal conditions this Agave Angustifolia to flourish. Following Onofre’s strict method, after the agave plants matured for 7 to 8 years the quiote is removed, allowing them to rest in the field as 100% capón to maximize sugar concentration and develop the remarkable density and mineral character that define his spirits.
For this batch OO-ESP-06, Onofre processed a total of 23,520 kilograms of agave. The agaves heads were slow-roasted in a traditional prehispanic conical stone oven using local Mesquite and Jacaranda woods, imparting a clean, delicate smokiness. After being crushed with a machete and hand mill, the cooked agave underwent natural fermentation with wild yeast and local well water in 1,200-liter sabino vats. The fermented mash was twice-distilled in August 2025 using a 350-liter copper pot still, producing 2,400 liters of mezcal at 46.2% ABV with no added water.
Unlike previous export releases, this batch is presented in a 750ml bottle, deliberately chosen so that mezcal lovers and dedicated customers can sip and appreciate it straight rather than mixed in cocktails.
Aromatically, the spirit opens with subtle salinity, dried herbs, and bright tropical fruit. On the palate, it delivers rich cooked maguey sweetness upfront, balanced by a distinct mineral thread and subtle spice. It finishes silky, round, and warm, offering a direct reflection of the arid Miahuatlán landscape and Onofre’s precise, unchanging mastery.
Enjoy it alone as an aperitif or with a small glass of water.
