Mezcal

Brand Introduction 

A mission-driven, social impact-driven company, Erstwhile is a boutique agave spirits importer based in Brooklyn, New York.  Our mission: advocate for small, independent, family-owned producers who lack representation outside their local communities in Mexico; and bring their craft to mezcal lovers in international markets for the first time. We work closely with our partner producers and set them up for success.  No haggling.  No exclusivity contracts.  We guide producers through the complicated steps to export in their own names for the first time and cover necessary expenses including local attorneys, accountants, license fees, and more.  We absorb our producers’ marketing and supply chain costs as our own.  We believe in autonomy for producers, be it hiring their own workers or using their own bottling facility. We only step in if they want our help. We connect with our partner producers to share knowledge and help each other in production. Revenue from every Erstwhile bottle sold creates jobs in our partner producers’ and vendors’ local communities in Mexico.  Our producers hire their own team of local men and women, on their own terms. Erstwhile is a woman-owned, women-led business.  Our team is multicultural and multilingual.  We are outspoken about elevating underrepresented voices in Mezcal and our industry.

Cucharillo Sotol (2021 Limited Edition)

This beautiful Cucharillo, distilled from wild Sotol plants harvested in Oaxaca's southern highlands, is the most aromatic and botanical from Erstwhile Mezcal's 2021 Limited Releases.  Oregano, lemon balm, and other wild mountain herbs that grow naturally in the same hills make a delightful bouquet in the mouth feel and flavor profile.  "Cucharillo" is the local name for the Sotol plant in this part of southern Oaxaca, Mexico.

 Erstwhile Madre Cuishe (2021 Ancestral Limited Edition)

Distilled in clay pots and quiote.  A legacy of the era when Mezcal production was illegal in Oaxaca, this extraordinary batch of Madrecuishe crafted by Silverio García Luis – a 2021 Ancestral Limited Release – rescues a García family tradition that had been lost for about 50 years.  In the 1960's and 1970's, mezcal production was illegal in Oaxaca and other parts of Mexico.  Don Lencho, Silverio's father, used a hollowed out quiote (the flowering stalk of agave plants) instead of a copper tube, to evade the military that would come and seize his distillation equipment by force.  The García family went back to using copper stills around 1980, as prohibition came to a gradual end in Oaxaca.  Now you too can partake in this unique distillation method and family tradition from the García family in Rancho Blanco Güilá, Oaxaca, available for the first time in the United States in partnership with Erstwhile Mezcal.

Tequila | Extra Anejo

About the Brand

OUR NAME: The Cazcanes natives, the last indigenous people of Mexico to be conquered by the Spaniards.
OUR SYMBOL: The Ancient symbol of the Healing Hand.
OUR RECIPE: Based upon a 300-year-old indigenous recipe found in a moonshine jungle still.
OUR WATER: Deep underground springs beneath the ancient native lands of the Cazcanes.
OUR INGREDIENTS: Agave and Water (No Additives)

THE LOST ART OF TEQUILA MAKING

CAZCANES WATER
Cazcanes sources natural artesian water for our tequila. The water starts off as rain or snow high up on the pristine peaks of the San Pedro de los Landeros mountains. It slowly travels through natural minerals deep within the volcanic mountains before emerging at the Navichi springs.

NATURAL YEAST FERMENTATION
The ‘piñas’ are then cooked, and crushed to extract and concentrate their flavors.  Next comes fermentation using natural, wild yeast, and then distillation in our alembic stills.

CAZCANES AGAVE
Hand-selected Weber Blue Lowland (Tequila Valley) Agave grown in Volcanic Tufa Soil at 4000-6000 ft is harvested during peak sugar levels to deliver a distinct Cazcanes taste.

ATTENTION TO DETAIL
At Cazcanes Tequila, we oversee every step of the process with tremendous Attention to detail to help create a tequila that stands above all the rest.

Aged for 37 months in American White Oak barrels and bottled at 100 proof, for maximum flavor, Cazcanes No 7 Extra Anejo is one of the best sipping tequila with an excellent flavor profile and smoothness. This could be the best gift for your lovers.
