Amateco is built around place: San Luis Amatlán, Sierra Sur, Oaxaca, where traditional production methods (conical earthen oven, native-yeast fermentation, copper pot distillation) shape spirits with honest edges and real depth. This Ensamble Silvestres brings together two compelling plants:
Cucharilla (Dasylirion) — often associated with bright, herbaceous, mountain-botanical character.
Bicuixe (Karwinskii variety) — frequently described as earthy/herbal with a grounded, mineral tone.
At 96 proof / 48% ABV, it drinks with structure—aromatic lift up front, then a more mineral, lightly bitter-pleasant finish that lingers like warm stone and wild greens.
