Mezcal Flight · Mexico City

Side-by-side tasting of mezcales joven (young), reposado (rested), and añejo (aged) from Oaxacan distillers, served in small clay copitas with worm salt and orange slices.

Mezcal predates tequila as the original Mexican agave spirit, distilled in Oaxaca since the 16th century from native maguey (agave) varieties: espadín, tobalá, tepeztate, and arroqueño. Mexico City's modern mezcaleria boom began with Bosforo in Centro and Los Danzantes in Coyoacan around 2010, followed by Tlecan, La Clandestina, and Ozimo Tahona.
