A FAMILY

LEGACY

Rooted in Oaxaca, México, the art and science of
making mezcal has been passed from one generation to the next for over 120 years. Don Bernardo learned the craft of making artisanal mezcal from his elders, and now, with deep knowledge and unwavering passion, he is passing his wisdom and skills to his daughter Fabiola. Together, they continue this cherished tradition.

Two families.

Two places. One
