MAESTRAS DE MEXICO
Artesanal focuses on preserving ancestral technemes and the contribution of women to the sensory and cultural identity of mezcal.
They exclusively support independent female micro-producers distilling fewer than 1,000 liters a year, protecting ecosystem and agave diversity.
Their first EU collection spans two years of unhurried curation from three Maestras across Guerrero and Oaxaca. Each batch personifies its author and locality, helping sustain their craft, dignity and way of life in small rural communities.
HIBISCUS LIQUEUR - Guerrero
In the high sierra of El Calvario, Maestra Jeiry Toribio has preserved her family recipe for over two decades. Each summer, she macerates fresh Hibiscus sabdariffa blooms with raw honey sourced from indigenous hives in Zacualpan. Blending her twice-distilled Papalote mezcal into this mix creates a vivid crimson liqueura rare expression born of a small mountain community where time stands still.
