From the remote village of San Pedro Teozacoalco in Oaxaca comes Del Maguey Papalome, a mezcal born from the wild Papalome agave—its name drawn from the Nahuatl word for butterfly. Grown in the lush Mixteca Alta region, this agave transforms under the skilled hands of maestro palenquero Fernando “El Bigote” Caballero Cruz, who distills it using the village’s traditional method: stainless steel pot, clay condenser, and bamboo tubing. Every drop is a tribute to patience, craft, and ancestral flavor.

With an ABV of 45%, this mezcal opens with earthy tones of leather and slate, layered with notes of black olive and dried black cherries. Each sip unfolds with a balance of smoke and sweetness, carrying a whisper of tropical air and the mineral soul of Oaxaca’s soil.

Best enjoyed neat or sipped slowly under open skies, Del Maguey Papalome San Pedro Teozacoalco invites you to taste the wild spirit of the land where butterflies and agaves share the same wind. A mezcal for the curious and the bold—authentic, untamed, unforgettable.
