Manojo Mezcal

Manojo Mezcal is a new mezcal brand that celebrates the spirit of Oaxaca. Celebrated Mexican chef and Manojo’s Co-founder and Creative Imagineer, Enrique Olvera, assembled a group of his closest Mexican and American confidants to bring the brand to life, ensuring that the spirit captures the true essence of the region. Olvera and Co-founders Alex Ferzan, Nes Rueda, Thomas McDonald, and Gonzalo Gout worked with husband and wife mezcaleros Joel Velasco and Felicitas Hernández in Oaxaca utilizing only Espadín agave to create their first expression – a bright and fresh mezcal that is incredibly versatile with notes of pear, green herbs, an innate minerality, and a crisp finish. Manojo Mezcal’s Espadín is meant to be enjoyed as Oaxacans do, casually mixed in with a cocktail or sipped on with a slice of orange and sal de gusano or worm salt.
