Process & Production

IZO begins with Cenizo agave, a variety known for producing mezcal with distinctive earthy and vegetal characteristics. Following the mezcal-making process, the spirit is placed into oak barrels for an extended two-year maturation.

Over this period, the mezcal develops greater depth and integration as it interacts with the oak. The barrel aging contributes notes of vanilla, caramel, toasted wood, and spice while complementing the naturally expressive character of the agave.

Appearance

A deep golden to amber hue, reflecting the extended two-year maturation in oak barrels.
