Origen Raiz Arroqueno

Wild Arroqueño, Back to the Roots

Origen Raíz Arroqueño is a rare and extraordinary mezcal made from wild Arroqueño agave — one of the most prized and distinctive agave varieties in the mezcal world, known for its massive size, long maturation (15-25 years), and the bold, earthy complexity it imparts to the mezcal. Origen Raíz — "origin root" in Spanish — is a brand dedicated to returning to the roots of traditional mezcal production, working with indigenous communities and wild agave varieties to produce expressions of genuine authenticity and depth.
