Most mezcal tastings happen in one venue and focus on explaining individual pours. This experience moves through three specialist bars in Roma Norte and uses tasting, comparison, and an interactive sensory exercise to help guests discover the differences for themselves. Take Huaxe: crushed with a stone tahona, fermented with wild yeasts, and finished in a clay-capped still in Oaxaca's Mixteca Alta, it's the kind of production story most visitors never hear outside a specialist bar like Matuche.
This is a guided Mexican spirits tasting, not a drinking tour. Across three specialist bars in Roma Norte, you'll taste five carefully selected spirits, a pulque-derived spirit from Los Juertes, your choice of snake-bottle sotol or a Guerrero mezcal, and three distinct mezcal expressions at Matuche, before closing with a Mezcal Paloma.
Start with Los Juertes, a spirit distilled from pulque, one of Mexico's oldest drinks. Then choose one: sotol, served from a bottle with a coiled snake inside and made from Dasylirion (not agave), or a mezcal from Guerrero for guests who'd rather stay with agave.
Taste three distinct mezcal expressions side by side, guided through what separates one from another: Máxima, an ensamble from Puebla; Huaxe, crushed with a stone tahona and fermented with wild yeasts in Oaxaca's Mixteca Alta; and Dr. Montesinos, from Agave durangensis. Compare the same mezcal in a clay jícara and in glass.
The tour closes with a Mezcal Paloma shared among the group and a traditional Mexican toast.
