Mezca-licious time

We did the mezcal tour and had such an amazing time! It was so much fun, incredibly authentic, and we learnt so much about mezcal, the traditions, and the process behind it. You can really tell how passionate and knowledgeable the people are. Such a memorable experience and definitely something we’d recommend to anyone visiting!

An excellent small tour run by a sweet family

Irwin is an excellent, knowledgeable guide and just a nice guy. You visit a palenque where he explains each step of the process of making artisanal mezcal, the difference from the industrial and traditional processes and the difference between the types of plants used. You meet a sweet horse named Suzy and taste the different mezcals including those made from the undomesticated plants which are not so easy to find elsewhere (at least without a hefty price tag). Irwin then takes you to his own fi...read more

Must-book Mezcal Tour

Irvin is the friendliest man we met on our trip to Oaxaca. He has a genuine passion for mezcal and for connecting with the people on this tour. The transportation, mezcal, food, and wealth of information from the tour are easily worth twice the price. Do yourself a favor and just book this tour.

Highlight in Oaxaca

We had the best time on this tour! Irvin is great company, funny and easy to talk to. We visited an agave field with the palenque's maestro to see how the plants are grown and harvested, and we got to try cutting the leaves ourselves (with limited success 😁). We then did an excellent tasting of many different mezcals, and had a delicious lunch of traditional Oaxacan food made at the palenque. It was definitely one of the highlights of our time in Oaxaca!
