Product Information

The life of a mezcalero once meant inconsistent work, low wages and an uncertain future. The 36 farming families behind the Banhez Cooperative are changing this, improving lives today and for generations, but it was not always this way.

The Banhez Cooperative is committed to making mezcal sustainably using artisanal techniques. Earthen wood-fire ovens lined with local river stone, tahonas pulled by horses, natural fermentation and small-batch distillation define the life’s work of the mezcaleros.

Banhez Tepeztate is comprised of 100% Tepeztate agave, a unique species that can take up to 25 years to mature.

Tasting Notes

Banhez Tepeztate is comprised of 100% Tepeztate agave, a unique species that can take up to 25 years to mature. Banhez Tepeztate presents flavors rich in smoke and terroir driven earthiness, with a green pepper vegetal nose, so green apple fruitiness, and notes of citrus zest. Underneath the full on flavour, this is a remarkably creamy spirit.
