“ Mezcales de Leyenda presents the first edition of the series: ‘Cementerio Mezcalero’ (Mezcal Graveyard), a collection of mezcales aged in glass that honors an old tradition often related to small comunities, in which some of the best ’mezcales’ are aged in glass containers, generally underground, to be latter unearthed for family celebrations such as birthdays, weddings, and baptisms.

The ‘desentierros mezcaleros‘ or mezcal unearthing, traditionally take place in Tzitzio, Michoacan, during the month of November, for the celebration of ‘Día de Muertos’, Day of the Dead.”

All the Special editions of Mezcales de Leyenda are related to a social cause, with ’Cementerio Mezcalero’, we will donate a significant portion of the proceeds for tourism equipment of Tzitzio, Michoacan in order to promote the ‘desentierros mezcaleros’ (mezcal unearthing) traditionally held during the celebration of ‘Día de Muertos‘, (Day of the Dead).

“Aromas: lactic qualites, roasted chestnuts and dried fruit;

Flavors: buttery notes with mild smoke with a high acidity and a long finish.”
