5 Sentidos Marteño Con Espadin is a mezcal produced by third-generation mezcalero Pedro Pascual Hernandez and his nephew Eduardo Barriga at their palenque, La Esperanza, in Santa Catarina Minas. It blends espadin and marteño, a micro-endemic agave from Oaxaca's Central Valleys. The agaves were roasted in an underground conical oven with guamuche and oak firewood for five days, then rested for ten days. After milling, the mash was dry fermented for three days and then fermented with well water for two weeks before being double-distilled in clay pots. In September 2023, 92 liters were produced, with 55 liters bottled for the U.S.
