Description

From the rugged hills of San Luis del Río comes Tanguyu Tepeztate, a young, artisanal mezcal distilled from one of Oaxaca’s most revered wild agaves. Bottled at 43% ABV, this expression embodies the bold spirit and complexity that Tepeztate is known for.

The nose is vibrant and distinctive, with spicy green chili notes, warm waxy tones, and a delicate touch of pineapple. On the palate, it opens with the sweetness of cooked maguey, layered with nutty almond, light chocolate, and a savory, meaty texture. A bright acidity on the finish adds freshness and depth.

Tanguyu Tepeztate is an intense and character-rich mezcal—wild, spicy, and nuanced. It’s a celebration of Oaxaca’s terroir and traditional craftsmanship in every sip.

About this company

In the locality of Santo Domingo Tehuantepec, Oaxaca, one of its 13 neighborhoods, is the Vixhana neighborhood considered a neighborhood of clay art artisans, where these dolls or clay toys and household utensils are made, currently only one person is dedicated to this trade and its production has spread to other municipalities of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec. These clay dolls called Tanguyu were given as gifts to girls in the month of December, a custom that began in New Spain Mexico and was still carried out in the 1930s. The origin of this tradition comes from pre-Hispanic times, since at the end of the 365-day cycle, our ancestors renewed the images of our tutelary Gods in the particular altar, and in order not to forget this pagan tradition, they hid it as a gift for their children. In addition to the above, the tradition continues in its uses and customs in Santo Domingo Tehuantepec, since in its traditional festivals women and men dance the Son de Tanguyu .
