Description

Mateo and Temo Garcia continue their late father Aquilino's work in Candelaria Yegolé, Oaxaca. Their Mexicano uses an agave variety native to the hillside where the family lives. Vago was founded by Judah Kuper, Aquilino Garcia and Dylan Sloan with a focus on preserving traditional mezcal production. Here, that work remains closely tied to the Garcia family's home village.

Roasted agave opens the nose with earth and a little smoke. Mint, sage and citrus add detail. Cooked agave sweetness meets gentle smoke on the palate, followed by green pepper and wildflowers. The texture is velvety, with lingering warmth. Roasted agave and herbs continue into a long finish.

Pour neat into a copita or small tasting glass and sip slowly. For a mixed drink, try a Mezcal Margarita or Mezcal Paloma.
