Pure Mezcal art from Oaxaca.
 
Wahaka (how one pronounces Oaxaca) is a distillery ran by two childhood friends that turned their love for distillation and tradition into a successful story about sustainable and community-centered business. It started in 2010, when they combed through Oaxaca to find the perfect Mezcal. They met Maestro Mezcalero Beto Morales, the fifth generation of Spirit-makers. The trio stepped together and created world-class Mezcal that both wows globally and supports locally.
 
Wahaka Joven Espadin is an artisanal expression of Mezcal that wears the terroir on its sleeve. It’s a magical potion that brings a fantastic balance of sweetness, smoke and soil, while the pure flavor of agave takes one’s senses right to the sunlit estate in San Dionisio, where all the sorcery happens. Espadin won four awards, by the way: three silver and one gold medal.

All Tequila is Mezcal, but not all Mezcal is Tequila.
While Mezcal is produced all across Mexico, most of the Mezcal we see is produced in the state of Oaxaca. Interestingly, over 70% of Mezcal is made from the Espadín agave—even though more than 20 types of agave are used to make Mezcal.

Espadín. That word means “sword” in Spanish because the leaves look like a mass of swords projecting out of the plant. Espadín Mezcals are most common because it has been the easiest agave to cultivate.
