Mezcal Union – The Origins
Date: 03.08.2018
It starts with a journey to learn more about the greatness of mezcal. The founders toured the mountains from peak to peak, reaching a hill where there was a tree and there they rested. There they came across an old man who shared his mezcal, his histories, and his ideas with them.
The old man told the founders something that caught their attention; he said that the future of mezcal would be based on a UNIÓN.
So, they continued their journey with a clear understanding of their path: to create a union of mezcal with different producer families. From there Mezcal Unión was born, carrying that message in every bottle.
The founders believed that the future of mezcal would be based on union, the quality of production and the well-being of producing families. This would form the foundations of Mezcal Union.
At the present time Mezcal Union is made up of +50 families, 20 Palenques (farms) within 8 villages.
