The art of mezcal reaches back through the centuries to the first Spanish in Mexico. We choose to rigorously follow those traditions of our ancestors and keep Wahaka rooted in the ancient. There are certainly easier ways and there are compromises that might go unnoticed. Instead, we insist our mezcal be handmade as our ancestors intended–cooked in earthen pits, crushed under a millstone, and fermented in open-air vats. When it comes to authentic mezcal, we believe the old world is still the best world.

Tasting Notes: The embodiment of traditional mezcal. Straight or mixed, the balance of smoke and sweetness mark the start to your mezcal adventure. Wahaka Espadín agave is exclusively grown and tended on our own estate
