Mezcal Tasting: La Luna with Owner & Founder Salvador Chávez
Join us virtually via Zoom or in person at The Curry House (Franklin, MA) on Tuesday, April 27th, at 7:00 PM, for an introduction to La Luna Mezcal led by Salvador Chávez (Founder/Owner of Puente Internacional, producer of La Luna Mezcal, Gustoso Rums and Gran Dovejo Tequila) and Craig Hiljus (VP, Sales and Marketing, Puente Internacional).
La Luna Cupreata is made with agave Cupreata in Etucuaro (Michoacan, Mexico.) At an elevation of 1,790 meters, the Cupreata Agave are harvested after eight to ten years of growth. The agave piñas are fire roasted in a stone-lined oven using estate sourced white oak. The cooked agave is milled by hand and naturally fermented in open-air wooden vats before being double distilled in a copper and pinewood Tarascan still. Due to the artisanal nature of this mezcal, the ABV varies by batch.
