Sombra is an award-winning mezcal that is dedicated to sustainable and environmentally friendly production. Sombra Mezcal is made from 100% organic Espadin Agave. After growing up to 10 years, the hearts are harvested and roasted for 2 days over oak wood fires that heat cooking stones in a stone-lined pit. The roasted agaves are then crushed by a limestone tahona, fermented with only native yeast, and distilled in copper stills to create a refined, smooth and balanced Mezcal at the traditional strength of 90-proof. Sombra owns and operates its own distillery; resulting in consistently delicious mezcal created using sustainabile production methods. Sombra's sustainable initiatives: • Organic Espadín Agaves, Not Conventional • Certified Sustainable Wood, Not Deforestation • Solar Powered Tahona, Not Animal Labor • Native Yeast, Not Commercial • Rainwater to Minimize Municipal Resources • Clean-Burning Propane Gas-Fired Stills, Not Wood-Fired • Mezcal By-Products upcycled to create Adobe Bricks for Local Housing, Not River Pollution • Love for the Oaxacan Community Through After-School Children's Education • Global Commitment by Donating to 1% for the Planet AWARDS 2016 - Double Gold / San Francisco World Spirits Competition.
