The Krassel family have been making Aguardiente (Cane Juice Rum) in the village of Santa Maria Tlalixtac, located in the Cañada region of Oaxaca, for 3 generations. They grow their organic sugar cane in the high altitude cloud forest in the far north of Oaxaca state at elevations ranging from 2000 to nearly 5000 feet above sea level.
Their cane is harvested, pressed, and pumped to their palenque where it spontaneously ferments from the presence of wild ambient yeasts in their stainless steel tanks and wooden tinas or open top casks. They use a modified continuous still that their grandfather designed in the 1930's. They have also recently begun to use a small copper alembic stills, similar to those used for Mezcal production elsewhere in the state. All of their releases under the Alambique Serrano label are bottled at cask/still strength and without any additives or filtration. Their Cañada brand is produced similarly but at a slightly lower (though still not "low") ABV.
