PUNTIAGUDO JABALÍ-MADRECUISHE ARTISANAL 750ML EXPORT
Puntiagudo MA-EJM-01, Jabalí-Madrecuishe Artisanal
This ensamble comes from Maestro Mario Acevedo, the same producer behind our Niños Viejos batch, in Santa María Velató, Miahuatlán, located in Oaxaca’s Sierra Sur. It blends two wild agaves from the same region: 40% Agave convallis (Jabalí) and 60% Agave karwinskii (Madrecuishe), which were between 12 and 15 years old at harvest.
Two agaves from Velató
The Jabalí is endemic to this region, and it grows differently from what most people picture. It lives along the edges of the roads, in family groups, with so many hijuelos piled up that the clumps look like small communities. It is also a smooth jabalí, quite unlike the jabalí of the northern and southern sierras of Oaxaca, so the profile it gives is entirely its own. The Madrecuishe is wild and comes from the same region; it brings the structure and resinous depth that anchor the blend.
Wilted before the oven
One peculiar detail of this batch is that the magueyes were left “tumbados” (out in the wild) for two to three weeks after being cut. Dried in the open this way, the heads lose water and concentrate their sugars and flavors before going into the oven.
From the field to the still
• Wild agaves harvested on April 12, 2023, then left tumbados for 2–3 weeks
• Roasted for six days in a conical earthen oven with guamúchil and oak wood
• Crushed with machete and tahona
• Fermented naturally with wild yeast for seven days in 1,000-liter sabino wood vats with well water
• Double-distilled on June 28, 2023 in a 300-liter copper pot still fitted with a refrescadera
• 52 liters rested in glass for three years, then bottled on September 25, 2026
Three years in glass
The time in glass has settled the spirit and smoothed the edges. At 48% ABV it stays fresh and resinous, with a silky texture that makes it very easy to sip neat.
The result is a spirit of pine, mint and a silky texture.
