"Vago Mezcal" is a brand that was born out of love for Mexico and its rich mezcal heritage. Founded by friends Judah Kuper and Dylan Sloan, Vago works with artisanal mezcal producers to create small-batch, 100% agave mezcals. Each bottle tells a story of its origin, detailing the master mezcalero, the village, the agave used, and the production process. The brand's philosophy is to celebrate the art of mezcal making and empower consumers with the knowledge to appreciate it. Vago Mezcal is crafted in traditional palenques with no additives, resulting in clear, joven mezcals that are as diverse as the regions they come from. The brand is known for its commitment to sustainability and preserving the art of mezcal making for future generations.

Not for the faint of heart, this one is pretty bold and beautiful. For espadin lovers, this is a big boy at 51% ABV that checks every box on your list. With the strong vapor and bite, it takes about midway through your copita to truly start to appreciate the flavors. I would recommend picking up a bottle, opening it and leaving it to cool down for a couple months. It’s worth it.
