Description
Cultivated in San Bernardo Mixtepec in the Zimatlán region of Oaxaca, agave lumbre ( LOOM-bray) is endemic to the region and predates the introduction of espadín. At an elevation of approximately 1651 meters, high in the hills above the pueblo, agave lumbre takes 8-10 years to reach maturity. Similar in appearance to espadín, lumbre can be identified by a red coloration at the base of the agave, which is where lumbre draws its name – lumbre translates to fire. This 600 liter release combines two productions from May and August 2021. Each production produced 360 and 420 liters respectively.Fermented and distilled in clay, lumbre is the signature destilado by José Alberto Pablo.
