Each bottle of Kimo Sabe 6 Year Grand Reserve Añejo is unique, with hand-beaded designs based on the spiritual visions of Huichol artisans. No two bottles of the 1,888 available for purchase will be alike, and each bottle sold includes a Sacred Heritage Collection NFT. Once the NFTs are minted and all 1,888 bottles are distributed, there will not be a new run of this uniquely matured mezcal, setting it apart from the competition. The combination of ancient craftsmanship and digital images represents the culmination of centuries of art, design and culture.
Kimo Sabe developed this project in collaboration with the Huichol (Wixarika) people, the last nomadic tribe in the Americas, to give the exceptional artistry of the Huichol people a platform that celebrates their heritage. Their ‘kupuri’ or life force has been infused throughout the design and production of these unique bottles and associated NFT offerings.
Handcrafted and featuring the tribe’s sacred iconography, the bottles honor all life on earth with reverence for their trinity of the twin deer (providing vision and guidance), corn (a form of sustenance) and peyote (a source of spiritual renewal). Each NFT shares similar themes, highlighting the unique artisans and traditions of the Huichol.
As part of this collaboration, the proceeds from the sale – up to one million dollars if the NFT is fully subscribed – will directly fund aid to the Huichol people.
Kimo Sabe Grand Reserve Añejo has been made from 100 percent agave, aged for six years in new American white oak barrels in the rarefied air of the High Bayou of Zacatecas. Like other Kimo Sabe products, the subtle smoke portfolio of Grand Reserve Anejo allows aromas of agave fruit, oak, toffee and crème brulee; delivers a flavor that is full of vanilla, brown sugar and buttery caramel; and a gentle finish that closes with buttery vanilla bean.
By highlighting these additional notes and aromas, Kimo Sabe Grand Reserve Añejo sets itself apart from other mezcals in an increasingly crowded marketplace and represents an opportunity to be part of one of the most exclusive drinking environments in the world.
