WHAT'S IN THE BOTTLE?

In Collaboration With The Huichol People Of Northern Mexico; “The Lost Tribe Of Shaman Healers”

Our Grand Reserve starts with agave that has absorbed the energy of the sun for 7 years before being harvested and distilled.

It then matures in American oak casks for an additional 6 years. It is extremely rare to have such an aged Mezcal done in the Traditional Zacatecan non smokey style.

We believe mezcal is one of the greatest spirits on the planet, and in the tradition of the Zacatecas original, where the piñas were baked in clean silver smelting ovens, very different from the smokey charcoal pits of the south.

TASTING NOTES

Nose: You’ll find aromas of agave fruit, oak, toffee, vanilla beans, caramel and crème brûlée.

Palate: Oaky brown sugar, with an astonishing amount of vanilla and butterscotch gained from the first use oak barrels. The flavors are bold and alive with layers of sweet brown sugar, rich malts, buttery caramel, and more creamy vanilla. Hints of nuttiness and a final note of toasted vanilla that is mellow, smooth, and lingering.

Finish: The lingering finish is gentle and closes with a final flourish of buttery vanilla toffee. A great way to remember this rare mezcal!

What’s the inspiration behind the bottles (the culture)/How are they made?
Developed in partnership with the Huichol or Wixarika people, the bottles are original works of visionary art, based upon spiritual visions from the artists of the lost tribe of shaman healers. Each bottle is hand beaded and incorporates the tribe’s sacred iconography, honoring all life on earth with veneration for their trinity of the twin deer (vision and guidance), corn (nourishment) and peyote (a source of spiritual renewal). Each NFT bottle is totally unique representing the vision of the particular Huichol artisan who created it.


Is there a charitable component? How does the tribe benefit?
The proceeds from the sale help fund this rare culture’s lineage long into the future. If fully subscribed, this program will generate $1 million for the Huichol people.


What's in the bottle?
A limited run of mezcal, crafted from 100 percent agave aged for six years in new American White Oak Casks in the rarified air of the High Bayou of Zacatecas. Like other Kimo Sabe products, the subtle smoke portfolio of Kimo Sabe Grand Añejo Reserve allows aromas of agave fruit, oak, toffee, and crème brulee; provides a palate that is full of vanilla, brown sugar, and buttery caramel; and a gentle finish that closes with buttery vanilla toffee.


Why did we choose to launch this collection via NFT?
Both the NFT and rare spirits communities flourish on authenticity, semblance, and ownership, so a pairing of the two through this unique offering unites old customs and traditions with new technology, ultimately providing a spiritual experience in a bottle with a digital footprint. Starting with this very limited release, Kimo Sabe joins a limited number of liquor brands using blockchain technology to combat counterfeiting in the industry.

Is there a whitelist?
Since we have chosen to set aside 222 bottles for direct pre order, there will be no whitelist mint. Once the pre orders sell out, the next opportunity will be the public mint.


Where can I see my NFT?
Once the NFT has been purchased (or “minted”), you will be able to see your NFT on OpenSea or other Ethereum-based NFT marketplaces. You can simply connect your digital wallet to the marketplace, which “signs you in,” and then browse the NFT(s) in your wallet through the marketplace’s interface.


If I use credit card to mint, how will I see my NFT?
To view your Kimo Sabe Sacred Heritage NFT you’ll have to create a web3 wallet. The process is incredibly fast, simple, safe and takes no funds to do so. After minting your NFT with credit card, you’ll be prompted to follow a few steps to get set up with a wallet.


Can you tell me about the bottle cases and what’s inside?
The hard shell cases are custom made and fitted to secure your bottle from potential harm. Inside every case you will find your 1 of 1 bottle, a metal engraved tab with your bottle number and a special letter.

Sign the digital notice to “burn” your NFT, removing it from the blockchain. You will then receive a “claimed” version of the NFT in your wallet and be asked to

What about the claimed version of the NFT?
The original NFT must be burned in order to receive a bottle. To preserve the beauty of the digital art, a second NFT is minted during the claiming process. This “claimed” version of the NFT allows the sacred art of this collection to live on without the utility to redeem for another bottle. Furthermore, this version of the NFT represents a digital membership to an exclusive club of bottle owners.

If I purchase on a secondary market such as OpenSea, how can I tell if an NFT’s accompanying bottle of mezcal has been claimed?
Once a bottle has been claimed, the NFT metadata will be updated to reflect the bottle's claim status. You can view an NFT’s claim status by viewing its metadata, or by checking the Properties section of the NFT on OpenSea. There will also be a very clear visual indicator showing the claimed version of the NFT.


How long do I have to claim my physical bottle?
The redemption period will start on 05/14/23, and NFT owners at that time will have until 05/14/24 to claim their bottles (12 months). Upon mint, you will be asked to provide a shipping address. After 05/14/24, any unclaimed bottles will be sent to the original purchaser’s listed shipping address.
