Del Maguey - Vida Mezcal
A Smoky Sip of Serenity
Del Maguey Vida Mezcal, launched in 2010, is an artisanal, organic mezcal that brings the heart of Oaxaca's San Luis del Rio village to your glass. Its unique character is shaped by espadín agaves, harvested and then roasted in traditional wood-fired copper stills for 3-8 days. This slow process, followed by an 8-10 day wild fermentation, imparts a distinctive flavor profile to the mezcal, making it highly mixable and popular among bartenders.
Its robust and smoky profile is balanced by a symphony of flavors including tropical fruit, honey, ginger, cinnamon, and tangerine. This mezcal offers a soft finish that leaves a lasting impression, making it perfect for both sipping neat and in various cocktails. Bottled at 84 proof (42% ABV), Del Maguey Vida provides a robust yet approachable experience for both mezcal aficionados and newcomers alike.
Del Maguey, founded by Ron Cooper, has been instrumental in introducing artisanal mezcal to the global stage. With a focus on single-village mezcals, Del Maguey highlights the unique terroir and traditional production methods of each village. This dedication to authenticity and craftsmanship has made Del Maguey a respected name in the mezcal world.
Del Maguey Vida is versatile in cocktails. Its balance of smoke and fruit flavors makes it an excellent choice for a smoky margarita or a paloma with a spicy twist.

A cherished spirit with a pleasant, smoky aroma that delights the senses! The spiced and fruity palate dances on the taste buds, with notes of smoked almond and light peach juice creating a truly unique experience. The lingering finish of tobacco and cinnamon adds a touch of complexity that could impress even the most discerning mezcal aficionado.
