With very few exceptions, Don Celedonio works his homegrown and wild-harvested agaves exclusively during the hot and dry months of March-May, producing around 800 liters annually. His wife, Telésfora, assists in nearly every aspect of production, and oversaw the fermentation and distillation of this 220L batch of Espadín, made in May 2021. The two descend from generations of palenqueros dating back beyond family memory and are proactive guardians of this family tradition in Logoche, Miahuatlán. Composed with a mix of heads, hearts, and tails, this batch of Espadín is extremely expressive of the terruño and highly representative of the quality of craftsmanship for which Logoche and the Aquino family are known.
