Tr3s Tiempos Bicuixe
Tasting Notes: notes of spices, like clover. When in the glass, its aroma takes us to wet soil; when in the hand, we perceive herbs. Its flavor is characterized for being slightly salty with a medium acid level, and a herbal taste. Also, the sensation to the palate is spicy and refreshing with a strong residual alcoholic flavor, but without being harsh.
This mezcal is made with semi cultivated wild agave, which for several generations, has been used by our village to create boundaries and fences to divide the land among neighbors in order to provide protection. Its name comes from this ancestral mission.
Its maturity time is from 9 to 12 years.
Tr3s Tiempos was born as a cooperative of people committed to preserving our traditions, our culture, and the purity of mezcal so that lovers of this drink can acquire it directly from the producers. We promote equity in trade to dignify the work of all and take care of our families, who are involved in the process of making mezcal. In so doing, we prevent emigration, which is a harmful factor for families.
