Tasting notes

El Jolgorio showcases mezcal crafted by sixteen families across ten regions in Oaxaca, Mexico. Each bottle is hand-marked, forging a connection between the drinker and the family behind it. Expect funky, grassy aromas with a clean, fruity taste akin to papaya, and a smooth, oily mouthfeel. Best sipped slowly among friends.

Why we love it

We love the dedication El Jolgorio puts into the diversity of agave across their range. They focus on a wide variety of rare species of agave. The result? Several exceptional and unique products introduce us to the world of mezcal. This particular bottle is an incredible expression of what they do and is a great way to start your journey into the El Jolgorio mezcal universe.

About El Jolgorio

El Jolgorio, part of Casa Cortés' mezcal brands, stems from six generations of Cortés family mezcal mastery since 1840. Operating their family palenque in Oaxaca, they partner with skilled mezcaleros across the region. Each mezcalero's tale enriches the heritage, preserving traditions and respecting nature. El Jolgorio crafts fifteen unique mezcals from wild-harvested agaves, each batch numbered to reflect its origins and the families' dedication.
