Description
Our experience is a full immersion in the mezcal culture and all the tradition that surrounds it.
Transportation, agave fields, artisanal distillery, mezcal tasting & local Oaxacan food.
Hi! I'm Ricardo
Proudly originally from Oaxaca.
Where with my family, we farm agave and making mezcal.
We started our adventure from the center of the city of Oaxaca towards Santiago Matatlán, a town better known as: "The World's Mezcal Capital" as the largest drink producer in all of Mexico.
There we visited a couple of distilleries to see the handicraft method in the production of mezcal. Our goal is to learn every step of the way and evaluate all the hard work behind this drink.
On our tour, we will have the opportunity to see private areas, which are normally restricted, such as a cellar where they rest and add mezcals in barrels; even packing areas where you can participate and be an important part of the process.
After learning how mezcal is made, we went to the tasting, where we do an unlimited mezcal tasting and talk about different categories, classes, and varieties.
We continue our journey to the amazing agave fields, where you can capture the best photos and even carry out activities such as plantation, cut or harvest depending on the season.
Finally, we offer a rich and traditional Oaxacan food already included and, of course... more Mezcal!
