Overview

This adventure begins in the historic center of the city, where we will have our meeting point and pick you up in one of our units.

For our first experience, we will head to Santiago Matatlan, the Mezcal Capital of the World.
Here, you will be part of the process of making mezcal.

You will cut agave, taste cooked maguey, pack your own bottle and get to know our ripened mezcal cava.

But the most amazing thing hardly comes, and it is our tasting of more than 12 different Mezcales.
Any of you like it? We can try it again.

And finally, we will visit the maguey fields where we will discover why it is such a noble plant.

You take care of enjoying and taking photographs, that teach you and have fun we will take care of.
