Description

Good to Know

Mezcal Soul: The spirit of a land This is not just a tasting — it’s an immersive journey into the land, the people, and the science behind one of Mexico’s most iconic spirits. Guided by a local expert and chemist, you’ll explore mezcal from its roots in the agave fields to the final pour in your glass. You’ll taste a curated selection of artisanal mezcals, learning how different agave species, terroir, and traditional production methods shape each flavor. As you sip, you’ll discover the stories behind the producers, the cultural significance of mezcal, and the subtle notes that define quality — from smoky and earthy to floral and fruit-forward. Expect a relaxed yet elevated atmosphere where education meets pleasure. You’ll develop your palate, gain insider knowledge, and experience mezcal in a way that goes far beyond the typical tour. By the end, you won’t just taste mezcal — you’ll understand it, connect with it, and carry a deeper appreciation of Oaxaca’s spirit with you.

Santiago Matatlan

Masterclass and tasting of Mezcal. We will be able to appreciate agave fields and some wild agaves growing in the area, the manufacture of tradicional Mezcal with families from the town. We will be also able to understand the growing of the category and experience the life in a "palenque", which is the name as a distillery is known in Oaxaca. We will observe copper and clay pot distillation and then taste the mezcales obtained from both techniques from a wide variety of agaves. We will be visiting a Pulque farm and how this other beverage from agave is extracted.

Super fun day!

This tour was just the right mix of teaching and fun! It was one of the best tours I’ve done. Her choices of food venues and distilleries was perfect! I would highly recommend!

Mezcal tasting with Lupita!

This was a phenomenal trip! Lupita tailored it exactly to our tastes. We were a group of eleven and are all very interested in good food and mezcal and Lupita provided exceptionally!

Not only was her k...read more

Mezcal Day Experience-a must do!

I think that was the highlight of my trip. There’s nothing like experiencing the intricacies of how mezcal is made. I have a whole new level of awe for the craft and tradition behind mezcal production. Lupita was amazing, I loved every minute of it.
