Description
Santo Cuviso Uvalama Bacanora is an extraordinary and exceedingly rare agave spirit — a bacanora made from Agave uvalama, a wild agave species native to the Sierra Madre Occidental of Sonora and Sinaloa. Agave uvalama is one of the lesser-known wild agaves used in traditional Sonoran distillation, producing a spirit of remarkable distinctiveness that sets it apart from the more common Agave angustifolia-based bacanoras.
Produced by Santo Cuviso using traditional methods — wild harvest, earthen pit roasting, natural fermentation, and copper still distillation — this is a spirit for the dedicated agave explorer seeking something genuinely rare and expressive of the Sonoran landscape.
