The Criollo is crafted by Maestro Mezcalero HÃ©ctor ObregÃ³n in MazatlÃ¡n, Guerrero. It's made with the wild maguey criollo agaves, a cousin of the espadin that is native to the Guerrero region and is rarely used in production. After being slowly cooked, the agaves ferment in open-air vats for 5 days before being distilled in an Arabic and a Filipino-style still with a wood hat. It's a rare chance to taste the magic of this special type of agave. Bottled at 100.6 proof, it's an intensely fruity spirit with medium smoke notes.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nGet your bottle of this unique mezcal today!                            \u003cdiv class=\"caskers-brand-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout PelotÃ³n de la Muerte\u003c\/h2\u003e\n                                            Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla was a Criollo Catholic priest and leader of the Mexican War of Independence. The Father of the Nation suffered a gruesome death in 1811, being executed and decapitated, his head hung on exhibition. The Squadron of Death (Peloton de la Muerte) sought revenge for his death, flying \"The Doliente Hidalgo\", a banner that represented the army. The same banner adorns the bottles of Peloton de la Muerte Mezcal, which takes its inspiration from the Mexican hero.                                        \u003cdiv class=\"brand-link\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/?brand_dropdown=4089\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eExplore all PelotÃ³n de la Muerte bottles \u0026gt;\u0026gt;\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"caskers-spirit-type-info\"\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"story-subtitle\"\u003eAbout Mezcal\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMezcal is a distilled spirit made from roasted agave plants between two days and two weeks, which gives it a distinct smokey flavor. \u003cbr\u003eWhat \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/whiskey\/scotch\/\"\u003escotch\u003c\/a\u003e is for whisk(e)y, mezcal is for \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/spirits\/tequila\/\"\u003etequila\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt can be made from different types of agave in different parts of Mexico, but most of it (60%) comes from the state of Oaxaca.
