Join Nicolette Diodati for an immersive tasting experience celebrating Del Maguey Single Village Mezcal, the pioneering brand that coined the phrase “liquid art.” Hand-crafted by individual Zapotec and Mixtec farmer-families, Del Maguey introduced the world to artisanal mezcal in 1995, showcasing the deep cultural heritage and distinct terroirs of Oaxaca and Puebla. Each expression embodies a “taste of place,” shaped by the traditions of ancestral villages and the dedication of the mezcaleros who preserve these time-honored methods.

This guided tasting will feature four 1-ounce pours, each representing a different village and production style, allowing guests to explore the nuanced flavors, rich history, and signature sweet, smoky character that define Del Maguey’s award-winning spirits.

To complement the mezcal, three thoughtfully paired small bites will be served, enhancing the depth and complexity of each pour:

Citrus and Cucumber Medley: Orange, grapefruit, cucumber, apple, arugula, olive oil, and chili-lime salt

Frico Bites: Ricotta, chili honey, Fresno chili, orange zest, and Maldon salt

Grilled Flatbread: Pulled pork, cilantro, and pickled red onion

This experience is more than a tasting—it’s a deep dive into the artistry, heritage, and unparalleled craftsmanship that define Del Maguey. Whether you’re a mezcal aficionado or new to the spirit, this event offers a rare opportunity to savor the stories, flavors, and traditions that make Del Maguey truly exceptional.
