Tezpeztate has a bold, complex flavor profile. Tomas Artesanal mezcal Tepeztate is made with 100% Wild Maguey Tepeztate. Maguey Tepeztate is a prized wild agave that can take up to 25 years to mature! It is often difficult to harvest given its penchant to grow in very inaccessible locations such as steep hillsides and directly out of the face of rocky cliffs.

MARCELA PEDRAZA DE HALLFOUNDER / EVP MEXICO BUSINESS Spanish is the loving tongue, Soft as music, light as spray:
‘Twas a girl I learned it from, Living down Sonora way.”
excerpt from the poem “The Border Affair”
by Charles Badger Clark, 1907)
And so it was, that a certain Tomás traveled to Mexico and met a girl from Sonora way, with roots far south in Michoacán. She regaled him with stories of Mexico and her family’s history with Mezcal. “Respect the spirit,” the ancestors say. Not just the spirit in the bottle, but the spirit of Mexico and Mezcal. It’s a simple love story really, that inspired the creation of Tomas Artesanal. Today, the couple works with local mezcaleros to create unique artisan agave spirits.
