Hola! Somos Lily & Ricardo! Una familia oaxaqueña que cultiva agave y desde hace 5 años, también producimos nuestra propia marca de Mezcal. Nuestra aventura comienza en el centro de la ciudad de Oaxaca con rumbo a Matatlán, pueblo mejor conocido como: "La capital mundial del mezcal" al ser el mayor productor de esta bebida en todo México. Ahí visitamos una destilería artesanal para ver de cerca la producción tradicional del mezcal.

En nuestro recorrido tendremos la oportunidad de ver áreas privadas, que normalmente están restringidas, como una cava de reposo y añejamiento; o incluso áreas de envasado en donde podrás participar y ser parte importante del proceso. Después de aprender cómo se elabora el mezcal, realizamos la degustación, la cual es ilimitada! Ya que podrás probar tanto como desees! Además, platicaremos sobre las diferentes categorías, clases y variedades que existen.
