La Penca Joven Mezcal

La Penca Joven Mezcal – 750mL

Wild Salmiana Agave • Hand-Blown Bottle

🐍 Bold Tradition Meets Refined Craft

La Penca Joven Mezcal is a fearless tribute to Mexico’s mezcal heritage—crafted from wild Salmiana agave harvested in the highlands of San Luis Potosí. Distilled with precision and aged in white oak and ex-bourbon barrels, this joven (young) mezcal delivers a smooth yet earthy profile with a whisper of smoke and a daring twist: two Chincuil worms nestled in every bottle.
