On the nose there are notes of fruit together with lactic and leather hints.

Don Lino follows makes his mezcal using the local traditions passed to him from generation to generation. In this region of Guerrero, after reaching maturity the agave quiotes (stalks) chopped off and the plants are left to grow 3 additional years. These wild agave Cupreata grow at around 1500 meters above sea level and reaches maturity between 12-20 years. The pit ovens are located in the mountains where the agaves are harvested and cooked in that location. After cooking, the agaves are brought down to the palenque, milled, and then placed in pine vats to ferment before being distilled in copper pots. Tohue Tohue is more than mezcal; it is a social project that proposes a new and innovative way of rescuing the artisanal work of the state of Guerrero through mezcal by including in the production chain other economic activities from the region. Tohue Tohue represents the diverse artisans in the region which operate directly in one of the most marginalized states in the country where the majority of the population speaks only Nahuatl. The motivation and resilience of the people from this region gave the name to this brand which means "Moving Forward" in Nahuatl.
