Real Minero Marteo, Barril is made with maguey Marteo and maguey Barril. While many consider these two agaves synonymous and identical to the untrained eye, its important to remember that many producers in Oaxaca are using the agave naming conventions that have been passed on for generations. Many of these local names may be applied to denote very small differences in the same general agave species (Like both of these agaves are Karwinskii). Some of the differences may be physical in appearance. They could be differences the agaves create in production, or even differences in where the agave are grown (For example, if the agave grows on a certain hill it might be Marteo, but if it grows near the stream it might be Barril). So this mezcal is made with agave Karwinksii that are mashed by hand and double distilled in small clay pots. Edgar Angeles is becoming very well-known for his high-proof Ensambles like this, produced at his familys palenque in Santa Catarina Minas, Oaxaca.
