Absolutely a must place to visit and sip and buy Mezcal when in Oaxaca City. Small yet big in unique Mezcal selections and gift items. Shop by the brand and/or the type agave. When it comes to agave and Mezcal production and distillation they know their stuff here. On Calle de Reforma across the street […]
In Oaxaca City near the Santo Domingo Cultural Center is a little ‘inside the mall’ mezcal store called ‘Mezcal Don Agave’. Yes I said Mall. A mini-mall and a great find for buying some quality Mezcal. It was fun shopping and a very pleasant experience. Colorful and unique items. If your ever in Oaxaca givem’ […]
Two favorites of ours. One reason is our friend and guide for the day, Miguel, introduced us to two spectacular markets and palenques 1) El Rey Zapoteco Fabrica de Mezcal and 2) El Rey Matatln. Two different locations, two different brands with lots of variety and selections but maybe one in the same producers and distributers […]
They have an amazing mezcal selection and a cool atmosphere. Most of the staff really knows their stuff when it comes to Mezcal and were willing to spend some quality time explaining the who, what, where and when about Mezcal.

Real Matlatl Mezcal has a store front and palenque in Santiago Matatlan. Clean well operated operation. They have a large variety of Mezcals made from common and not so common agave.

Sabina Sabe my first impression was wow what a places. A lot of little hid away covey holes all over the place and all unique and inviting. Some rooms held various brands of Mezcal Behind steal bars like little Bandits. Other rooms were open and cosey in a very Mexican sort of way. All were […]
A small kinda outa the way little Mezcalera and eatery that’s making a name for themselves in a good way. In appreciation for all things made from Agave including the many drink possibilities Mezcal affords. Drink Mezcal traditional or flavor it up some in a true Oaxacan manner according to various traditions and recipes developed […]
Los Danzantes has a lot going for it. A good location, unique ambiance, great food, really good service and a great selection of Mezcal. Actually my bride and I both agreed that their own brand of Mezcal is if not the best at least one of the best we’ve tasted in Oaxaca. They have a […]
In Situ! A special little Mezcaleria situated on one of the main streets in Oaxaca, Morelos No. 511 Centro, is owned and operated by especially gifted historians and connoisseurs of Mezcal. It’s all about tradition and information here ! It’s all about the Mezcal so don’t ask for Gustavo salt and orange slices to […]
