Description
Origen 35, uses an heirloom purple maize, one of 35 species that are native to Oaxaca.
The purple maize is harvested approximately five months after it has been planted, when the kernels become tender. It is harvested and shelled all by hand.
For malting, the kernels are placed on palm mats called petates and kept most for 10-15 days until they sprout. The sprouts are removed, and the kernels are toasted on a clay comal, one of the most representative elements in Oaxacan gastronomy.
The toasted kernels are then put through a nixtamal mill and hydrated with spring water to obtain a paste. This paste is then fermented with ambient yeast in open steel vats for five to seven days and then distilled in a column still with 12 physical plates.
Finally, the distillate is charcoal filtered for 48 hours to obtain a clear and bright appearance.
