Mezcal List

Our Mezcal list changes by season, rotating some of our families current favorite bottles. Much like wine, mezcal is a robust and complex world, we only feature brands we love, know and believe you should support. We have divided our mezcal list in three sections: beginner, Intermediate and Master.

Beginner Mezcalero

If you are new to the mezcal, the following mescal list is a makes for a great introduction to the wonderful and complex world of mezcal

Beginners Mezcal Tasting

Three tasters from our beginner mezcal list

Union [40%]

Mezcal Unión Uno uses farm-grown maguey Espadin and wild maguey Cirial. This agave is cut and roasted for four days. The families that produce Union have several generations experience as their main craft. Union uses a collection of different producer-families in the region to produce their bottles.

La Puritita Verdad [40%]

Made from agave Espadin, which takes 8 to 10 years to mature. This Mezcal is crafted in San Juan del Rio by maestro mezcalero Rodolfo Hernandez. It has a savory smoke flavor with earthy undertones

Yola, Espadin [45%]

Women owned. Handcrafted and organic, YOLA Mezcal follows a distinctive recipe from 1971 passed down by Yola's grandfather. It is produced in San Juan Del Rio and bottled by women in Oaxaca. On the nose, there are clean agave flavors with vibrant smoke. The flavors are bright and refreshing, yet complex with earthy mineral flavors. The finish is long and has notes of smoked fruits and peppery spice.

Lola

Lola Mezcal was created by friends who, in love with the tastes and romance of Mexico, made a Handcrafted spirit. According to the brand, this mezcal is not meant to be sipped , but kissed.

Dos Pasiones [45%]

Ranging from 7 to 20 years, every agave is harvested to maximize taste with maturity proving that the best things in life always take time. Santa Maria's rich mineral-soil and natural spring water sources offer unique mezcal flavors, which extend a sublime experience to all the senses. Our distillation process is also completely artisanal yet remains true to Oaxaca's deep tradition for its spirits and liquor. Our Espadín comes from a variety of agaves that we cultivate and harvest after 7 to 8 years of seeding. These agaves are grown among the various soils of our village which adds to its flavor's distinct strength and complexity.

El Silencio [ 43%]

El Silencio is made in Oaxaca, Mexico, using the traditional process carried on by generations of mezcaleros. Meticulously picked agaves are roasted, crushed, and double distilled resulting in a full-bodied flavor.

Firme Mezcal Espadin[42%]

San Luis Del Rio is at the epicenter of espadin production in Oaxaca. Here due to the extreme shifts in elevation and intense heat, the agaves ripen to astounding levels much quicker than elsewhere making for mezcals full of sweet nectar like agave flavors balanced by a smoky intensity. Notes here include bitter melon, coconut water, verbena, honey water, kiwi, and bright acidity on the earthy finish.

La Luna, Michoacán [45%]

La Luna Ensamble is crafted with two agaves that are native to the state of Michoacan. This ensamble is 70% Cupreata and 30% Tequilana. The cooked agave is milled by hand and naturally fermented in open-air wooden vats before being double distilled in a copper and pinewood Tarascan still. Due to the artisinal nature of this mezcal, the ABV will vary by batch.

Tosba, Espadin [48.5%]
