About this mezcal

Gracias a Dios Cupreata is made in Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca using roughly 5,000 agave Cupreata that were harvested in Apango, Guerrero. The agave were harvested from the wild and took approximately 10 years to reach maturity. The agave were cooked in an underground pit oven, fermented in pine-wood tubs, and double distilled in copper alembic stills.

Gracias a Dios Mezcal

The team behind Gracias a Dios Mezcal opened a mezcalería in Querétaro, México in 2010. After two years of touring around Mexico in search of mezcal, they met mezcalero Oscar Hernández and were impressed by his mezcal. They decided to create a brand with Oscar and make him an equal partner. Oscar learned how to distill from his mother whose nickname is “La Jefa”.

Aside from a few special releases, Gracias a Dios is made in Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca. It is 100% artisanal, handmade with piñas from Espadín agave and other varieties, ground and fermented in their own palenque in Santiago Matatlán, and distilled in copper by maestro mezcalero Oscar Hernández Santiago. Their Karwinskii agaves are shredded mechanically, due to the toughness of their fibers, and then tahona-crushed afterwards. All other agave used at this palenque are crushed by horse-drawn tahona only.

Patron Silver is crystal clear, ultra premium tequila. This light, fresh tequila is a favourite of tequila connoisseurs worldwide. Many prefer this smooth, soft and light tequila over an aged and slightly oaky flavour. Patron Silver is the perfect ingredient in your favourite margarita or in your favourite mixed cocktail. It is also delicious neat or on the rocks. ;Source: www.patrontequila.com

THE ONE THAT STARTS THEM ALL
100% BLUE WEBER AGAVE.

Espolon - All of our tequilas start with Espol?n Blanco. Unaged, Blanco is the purest expression of Espol?n tequila. Created in the famed hills of Los Altos, our Blanco tequila is double distilled using column and pot stills to give it a perfectly smooth and balanced taste profile. Great on the rocks, this is the one you?ll love shaking into all the best tequila cocktails.

100% BLUE WEBER AGAVE.
RESTED BETWEEN 3-5 MONTHS IN
NEW AMERICAN OAK BARRELS.

Espolon - Our tequila Reposado starts off life as Blanco. It?s then rested in lightly charred, new American oak barrels to create a more complex and well-rounded character uniquely Espol?n. This one begs to be shared in cocktails that deserve even greater tequila character.

Nose: Sea salty, herbal floral nose with hints of vanilla.

Inspired by the passion, traditions, and culture of their native Mexico, brothers Julio and Eduardo Mestre founded Los Siete Misterios in 2010 with the goal of making a Mezcal that represents the customs, culture, and passion of Mexico.

Beginning with highest quality agave plants, Los Siete Misterios follows ancestral methods including cooking in underground ovens, milling with wooden mallets, and often distilling with hand-made clay pots. 

Los Siete Misterios is the creation of the brothers, the Maestros Mezcaleros, and the Oaxacan communities in pursuit of celebrating Mezcal and Mexican Culture.

The Doba-Yej is the core expression. It is a well-balanced Mezcal that is delicious sipped neat or in a cocktail. Doba-Yej means Agave Espadin in the ancient Zapotec
language.

"Crafted in a small Mexican town, amidst the highest peaks of the Jalisco Highland mountains, every step of our tequila making process is meticulously done the right way at Destiler?a Teremana de Agave. The jimadores harvest fully mature naturally sweet agave, we then slow roast them in small traditional brick ovens, and distill in handmade copper pot stills. This creates a bright flavorful tequila that honors the land it comes from.

In life we care about the things that have deep meaning to us - family, friends, work, good times and the not so good times. Our tequila is no different. TEREMANA combines two words that are meaningful. 'TERE' derived from the Latin 'terra' meaning earth and 'MANA', the Polynesian word meaning spirit - Teremana is the "Spirit of the Earth".
