Overview

Discover the essence of mezcal with a family that has perfected its craft over generations, producing some of the most authentic and wild varieties. Our small group tour, limited to 10 people, offers an immersive experience—touch, feel, and follow each step of the process.

Explore the maguey fields, seeing different agave species, and taste six unique mezcals. Enjoy exclusive access to the best prices directly from the producers. Unlike other tours, we’ve carefully selected distilleries to give you a genuine experience of mezcal traditions and heritage.

The journey culminates with a magical lunch under a rustic palapa in the maguey fields. A local cook from a traditional cocina de humo will prepare Oaxacan specialties like memelas, tlayudas, and refreshing agua del día, offering a delicious close to your experience. Leave with a deeper appreciation of mezcal as an ancestral treasure passed down through generations.
