About this bottle

Don Amado Rustico is a mezcal from Hacienda Chacolo in San Luis del Rio, Oaxaca, one of the earliest artisanal mezcal producers to export to the US. Made from wild and semi-cultivated agave in small copper-pot stills, it carries the smoky, earthy character that comes from roasting agave hearts in underground pits before distillation. Rustico reflects a rougher, more traditional production style than many commercial mezcals, with a rustic edge on the palate that leans savory and mineral rather than clean and refined. It suits mezcal drinkers who want a genuinely artisanal, small-production style.

How to drink Don Amado Rustico

Sip it neat in a small glass, traditionally alongside a plate of orange slices and sal de gusano (worm salt) to balance the smoke.
