Distiller Notes
Rosaluna is an all-natural, USDA Organic, additive-free agave spirit handmade in the rolling hills of Santiago Matatlán, the heart of mezcal country in Oaxaca, Mexico. Crafted from roasted agave hearts, Rosaluna opens with rich caramel notes, followed by hints of ginger, cinnamon, and warm spice. Bright layers of citrus, pineapple, and pear give it a fresh, tropical lift. It leads with a subtle touch of agave smoke and finishes with smooth baking spice and sweet fruit, making it a mezcal that’s approachable, versatile, and truly for everyone.

Made with single-estate grown espadín agave, this mezcal has a bold, dried oregano scent. The palate shows jalapeño, graphite, and dried herbs, finishing with a sooty exhale and black pepper heat.
Mezcal Joven or “young” is bottled within two months of distillation without barrel aging and will appear clear, like a Vodka or Gin. Longer barrel aging, with the principal aim to soften and round a spirit’s flavor profile, is often most prized by connoisseurs. However, many die-hard Mezcal enthusiasts insist that oak takes away from the purity of the agave flavors—ranging from earthy and smoky to sweet and floral, often in the same Mezcal—and that Mezcal Joven is the best expression.
