Ilegal Mezcal has a beautifully balanced profile, with a mouthful of agave and a hint of smoke.

Handcrafted in small batches by fourth-generation mezcaleros, our Joven, Reposado, and Añejo mezcals are all made with 100% Espadín agave, double distilled in the Santiago Matatlan Valley of Oaxaca, Mexico.

Commitment to quality is apparent in every step of our process, from harvest to first sip.

A gorgeous spirit rivaling the world’s finest scotches and cognacs. Rounded. Full. Rich. Yet untamed. Maple, clove, and bitter orange aromas. Dark chocolate and sweet agave on the palate.

Making mezcal is an art. Each lot of Ilegal Mezcal Añejo is aged to taste for 13 months, using a combination of new and used American oak, medium char barrels. Our barrels are sourced from Kelvin Cooperage, a family-run business since 1963.

Awarded "Best of the Best" - Best Aged Mezcal, year over year at the Tequila.net Awards.
