About

Made by Lalo García — a single Oaxacan distiller working with three wild agave varieties (Cuixe, Tobasiche, Serafín). Each agave brings something different: Cuixe gives green/floral lift, Tobasiche brings spice and depth, Serafín adds savoury earth. The blend is layered, complex, distinct. Single palenquero, single batch.

Producer note

Cuentacuentos work directly with small Oaxacan distillers — every bottle traces back to a named palenquero.

Oaxaca, Mexico

Cuentacuentos Arroqueño Mezcal

Cuentacuentos

Arroqueño is a wild relative of Espadín, with denser, more complex flavour — agaves grow 18+ years before harvest. Cuentacuentos work directly with small Oaxacan distillers (palenqueros), each batch single-village, single-distiller, traceable. Smoky, herbal, savoury, with stone fruit and mineral depth. A wine-drinker's mezcal.

La Gritona Reposado Tequila

La Gritona Reposado Tequila

La Gritona

Made by Melly Barajas in the highlands of Jalisco — one of the few female master distillers in the tequila industry. 100% Blue Weber agave, additive-free, aged 8 months in second-use American whiskey barrels. Pale, restrained, savoury — cooked agave, citrus, white pepper, gentle oak. The opposite of vanilla-bomb commercial reposado.
