Convite Tepextate is made from wild Tepextate agaves that can
take up to 25 years to reach maturity. Convite Tepextate is
known as the “Black Truffle” of mezcal due to the number
of years needed to reach maturity and the intense flavors
it offers; this mezcal has a spicy character that combines
earthy, herbal, and sweet notes.
