Del Maguey Vida 750 ml

Del Maguey pioneered the single-village mezcal category in the US, and Vida was created specifically as the brand's accessible, cocktail-friendly entry point — built to work behind a bar the way blanco tequila does, rather than only as a slow, contemplative sipper. It's made in San Luis del Río, Oaxaca from 100% espadín agave, roasted in an underground earthen oven, crushed with a horse-drawn stone tahona, fermented in open-air wooden vats, and double-distilled in copper stills — the same traditional palenque process used across the Del Maguey portfolio. Expect real smoke from the roasting, backed by cooked agave, citrus, and herbal notes rather than a purely one-note ashtray character.

How to drink Del Maguey Vida

Use it as your go-to bottle for a Mezcal Margarita or Mezcal Negroni — that's literally what it was designed for. Neat with an orange slice and a pinch of chile salt works well too if you want it straight.
