Beú Spirits Deimos is an uncertified, small-batch destilado ancestral that honors hyper-local liquid traditions in Oaxaca, Mexico. Part of the Pasmo series, this release focuses entirely on wild Agave potatorum, famously known as Tobalá, which grows sparsely at high altitudes in rocky, shaded canyons. Because these small, crown-shaped agaves take up to 12 to 15 years to mature and offer incredibly low sugar yields, this liquid represents an immense amount of patience and manual labor.

The production represents the absolute pinnacle of traditional craftsmanship, moving completely away from copper and machinery. The wild Tobalá hearts are roasted in an underground earthen pit with oak firewood, hand-mashed with heavy wooden mallets in oak troughs, and naturally fermented with wild yeasts alongside the agave fibers. True to its ancestral designation, the mash is then double-distilled in small clay pots (ollas de barro), where the porous clay lends a signature earthy, mineral texture that you cannot replicate in standard stills.
