3Bite Agave Spirit

An elegant, artisanal agave distillate crafted with patience, fire and volcanic stone. Un mezcal artesanal y elegante, hecho con paciencia, fuego y piedra volcánica.

Born from Oaxacan TerroirNacido del Terroir Oaxaqueño

High in the mountains of Oaxaca, where ancient volcanic soils meet desert winds at 1,500 meters above sea level, our agave plants slowly mature under the Mexican sun. This is where 3Bite begins—not in a factory, but in the hands of master mezcaleros who have perfected their craft across generations.

En lo alto de las montañas de Oaxaca, donde los antiguos suelos volcánicos se encuentran con los vientos del desierto a 1,500 metros sobre el nivel del mar, nuestras plantas de agave maduran lentamente bajo el sol mexicano. Aquí es donde comienza 3Bite—no en una fábrica, sino en las manos de maestros mezcaleros que han perfeccionado su oficio a través de generaciones.

The mineral-rich earth, extreme temperature variations, and pure mountain air create the perfect conditions for agave that develops complex, nuanced flavors. Each plant takes 7-12 years to mature, absorbing the essence of this remarkable landscape.

La tierra rica en minerales, las variaciones extremas de temperatura y el aire puro de montaña crean las condiciones perfectas para un agave que desarrolla sabores complejos y matizados. Cada planta tarda de 7 a 12 años en madurar, absorbiendo la esencia de este paisaje extraordinario.
