Del Maguey is a renowned brand in the world of mezcal, offering a wide range of artisanal, single-village mezcals that showcase the unique flavours and traditions of various Oaxacan communities in Mexico. The brand was founded by Ron Cooper, who has been a pioneering force in promoting and preserving traditional mezcal-making practices. Del Maguey’s mezcals are made from 100% agave, with a strong focus on sustainability and fair trade practices.
Each Del Maguey mezcal is made using traditional methods that have been passed down through generations. The hearts of the agave plants, known as “piñas,” are roasted in earthen pits lined with volcanic rocks and agave fibres. This cooking process imparts smoky and complex flavours to the mezcals.
One of the distinctive features of Del Maguey is its commitment to transparency and the concept of “single-village” mezcals. Each expression is sourced from a specific village, allowing consumers to explore the nuances of flavours and techniques unique to that community. Some of the notable villages that Del Maguey works with include Santo Domingo Albarradas, San Luis Del Río, Chichicapa, and many others.
Del Maguey mezcals are typically characterised by their terroir, offering a wide range of flavour profiles, from sweet and floral to smoky and earthy. The brand has received numerous accolades and awards for its mezcals, which are highly regarded by mezcal enthusiasts and connoisseurs around the world.
In addition to its dedication to producing exceptional mezcals, Del Maguey places a strong emphasis on sustainability and supporting the communities it works with. The brand is committed to fair trade practices and environmental responsibility, which is reflected in its production methods and relationships with local farmers.
Del Maguey Vida Mezcal is a single vintage artisanal mezcal from the San Luis Del Río village in Oaxaca, Mexico. It’s made from 100% agave Espadín and crafted using traditional methods. The flavour profile includes sweet roasted agave, citrus, tropical fruits, and a subtle smokiness. Vida is versatile, enjoyed straight or in cocktails, and is recognised for its balanced and accessible taste. It’s often used by mixologists and bartenders.
