Mezcal Zaa

Our Story

Making opposites meet

Záa is a Mexican project born form opposite personalities, outstanding professionals on their guild, mezcal lovers attracted to a same, common vision: the generation of value, consciousness and guidelines through the maguey-mezcal world of mysticism.

An essential part in this mezcal house is the presence of the García family, originally from the Valles Centrales region in Oaxaca, in San Dionisio Ocotepec; José García and his family are keepers in this tradition of elaborating mezcal, an alchemy learned and inherited from the antique Zapotecan elders.

Being producers, we directly take part in all its traditional processes’ quality, from the growing of the maguey to the bottling of the drink.
