The agave used for Los Gigantes were the weight of a 1970's VW bug. 17 years ago, Manuel and Ruben began their joint farming project - two adjacent farms that they work on together. Agave Maximiliana is the focus with four Americanas planted to identify the property line. These Americanas grew into massive agave with the largest piña weighing in at 880 kgs. Harvested 2 years ago, these 4 agaves, known as Los Gigantes, were produced by Ruben and Manuel together for this once in a lifetime batch.
