Originally established in 1700, the distillery that produces Don Amado is renown throughout the southern Mexican state of Oaxaca as one of the finest producers of premium mezcal. The distillery uses only estate-grown agave to ensure the plant's high sugar levels, and mixes steam into the agaves' smoke roasting to smoothen the mezcal's characteristically smoky flavor. Made from 100% blue agave that is double distilled and triple filtered for purity.
