Agave Flor de Piedra or "Agave Vázquezgarciae" is a wild species that grows on cliffs and rocky hillsides in the Sierra de Jalisco, approximately 1,800 meters above sea level.
The difficulty in accessing and harvesting them, along with their unique flavors, make it a distinct spirit unlike any other, with special value.
The Special Edition No. 1 is an expression of this exotic agave, contained in a bottle inside a handcrafted copper case, each one with unique patterns.
This batch is the last produced by the legendary master Gerardo Peña, "El Lobo de la Sierra," before his retirement.
Only 100 certified pieces of this spirit exist.
