Los Danzantes Mezcal is produced in Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca using artisan techniques to honor and stay connected to the Mexican identity of its founders. Its production centres around respect – respecting artisan production methods; respecting the earth while learning from people who have made mezcal for generations; respecting the plants’ growing cycles and understanding that it is this very plant that bestows its gifts upon us.

Using artisan techniques to produce mezcal means understanding the origin of the product, from the jima del maguey (cutting the stalks off the heart of the maguey), to bottling. At Los Danzantes, mezcal involves an emerging awareness, a way of singing the praises of traditions and of recognizing the product’s artisanal roots with great pride, all the while honoring Mexico.”][/trx_section][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_hoverbox image=”1728″ primary_title=”” hover_title=”joven” shape=”square” hover_background_color=”chino”]47% ABV

This artisanal mezcal is produced with 100% Espadín (Agave angustifolia Haw.), hand-harvested from the Oaxaca Valley plains, infused with flavours of the earth, volcanic rock and local woods that awaken senses and connect heartfelt emotions.

Roasted in a stone-lined, wood-fired roasting pit and milled using a horse-pulled millstone, this clear spirit has silky, balanced flavors that are round and smooth, and spread equally throughout the entire mouth. The initial taste brings on notes of light fresh fruit, with a middle that calls into play concentrated green herbs, and then moves on to the sweet flavor of roasted maguey and a finish reminiscent of smoke and wood.

This mezcal is an excellent digestive, aperitif and accompaniment to food. It pairs well with spicy food, traditional Mexican food, thinly-sliced grilled beef, dried/cured meat, heavily-seasoned dishes, and markedly sweet desserts.[/vc_hoverbox][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_hoverbox image=”1729″ primary_title=”” hover_title=”reposado” shape=”square” hover_background_color=”chino”]44% ABV

Mezcal made from maguey Espadín (Agave angustifolia Haw.), and aged for nine months in both American and French oak barrels. These barrels are used solely by Los Danzantes Distillery, resulting in a lasting flavour that lingers on your palate.

A subtle and elegant aroma with smoky, earthen accents and touches of vanilla and maple syrup complemented by a palate that offers strong flavours, sweet, well-balanced alcohol content, subtle. It is well-rounded, elegant, robust and sparkling on the palate with a combination of flavors that come and go, such as coconut, strong notes of vanilla and wood as well as damp wood and sweet flavors that prolong the excellent aftertaste.

An excellent accompaniment as a digestif or with desserts that include vanilla, cinnamon or chocolate. Delightful with chocolate de metate – a traditional Mexican artisanal hand-ground chocolate.[/vc_hoverbox][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][trx_button align=”center” link=”https://www.liquidity.co.za/portfolio/”]back to our portfolio[/trx_button][/vc_column][/vc_row]
