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.

Awesome mezcal and alebrijes tour in Oaxaca

I had an amazing day with my guide, David. I was picked up from my accommodation and we headed out of the city. On the way to the maguey fields, we had a stop at the Jacobo & Maria Angeles workshop in San Martin Tilcajete. This was a great place to learn about the process used to make the alebrijes using traditional paints and styles. It was wonderful to see the skilled artisans at work, carving the Copal wood and painting the pieces. We then went to Mezcal Pasion Ancestral. I had the most amazi...read more

Amazing food in an awesome setting!

What an amazing setting and what an amazingly delicious meal! I wish I could have it again right now! The was a very fun and unique experience. Rodrigo was very friendly and accommodating, and his wife made some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. Lots of mezcal to try and you really get to see their family operation in motion. We will definitely be returning!

An unforgettable experience ✨

An unforgettable experience ✨ Rodrigo and his family welcomed us with a unique hospitality in the mezcal fields of his family.

What makes it so special is the naturalness and closeness: his wife, his little daughter and even the dogs of the countryside were present, making us feel at home. The food was delicious and the setting, in the middle of the...read more

An Amazing Mezcal Experience in Oaxaca

Visiting this maguey field was one of the highlights of our trip to Oaxaca. From the moment we arrived, Rodrigo, our guide, made us feel incredibly welcome. He gave us a fascinating tour of the maguey field and explained every step of the artisanal mezcal-making process in detail. The mezcal tasting was outstanding—we could try as many varieties as we wanted, and every single one was excellent. Also, the traditional Mexican dishes prepared by Rodrigo's wife were absolutely delicious. Will defi...read more
