Madrecuishe Maguey madrecuishe (madre-cuixe, madrecuixe) is a karwinskii agave. It grows primarily in dry climates and usually takes on a tall, cylindrical shape. Due to the dense core of the agave and its low water content, mezcal made from maguey madre-cuishe generally has a high minerality with vegetal and floral notes.

For their Merlet VSOP Cognac, Gilles and his sons selected and blended eaux-de-vie from different regions of the cognac appellation, to ensure consistent quality. The eaux-de-vie were aged for at least four years. Most of the Cognacs selected for this blend are from Fins Bois ‘crus’, famed for their fruitiness and their capacity to mature fast when barrel-aged.
Sortilège Wild Blueberry is a Canadian whisky liqueur with maple syrup to which the delicious flavours of the famous wild blueberries from Lac Saint-Jean have been added. The result is a liqueur of remarkable finesse, both fruity and slightly sweet. It is enjoyed chilled, on the rocks, and its richness also lends flavour to coffee and cocktails. You can also serve it neat to conclude an excellent meal. Sortilège is crafted from an original recipe by the descendants of the first settlers of Quebec, who brought New World whisky-making techniques and added a local native ingredient, maple syrup, to create an entirely unique new spirit.
100% rye aged in former maple syrup barrels Crafted with the same unique mash bill of 100% organic rye grain as the classic KOVAL Rye, this limited-edition expression spent time aging in maple syrup casks for an extra touch of sweetness and appealing depth of flavor.

A delicious base for Manhattans, and a delightful addition to the collections of craft whiskey enthusiasts and lovers of unique barrel aged spirits.
Maguey tepeztate (or tepextate) is an Agave marmorata. It produces beautiful quiotes at the end of it’s life that flower a rich yellow before turning to seed. Tepeztate takes as many as 25 years to mature in the wild, and sustainability efforts are needed in order to keep mezcal production of this agave in the future. Despite all odds it seems to flourish best on the sides of steep rocky cliffs. In certain areas of Puebla there is a smaller sub-varietal of the Agave marmorata that grows with lateral white stripes across the pencas. These agave can go by the name pichomel, pichorra, or pizorra depending on location.

At the beginning of every harvest season, the Maya would hold an enchanting feast full of rich treats of chocolate and corn in gratitude to the Aluxes.
