Tepanal is the clay-pot mezcal of Rafael García Aragón, a mezcalero in Santa María Sola de Vega, the Oaxacan district that made clay-pot distillation famous. The brand launched in 2020 with his son Jair and partner Antonio Avendaño, and the name comes from Tepanaltepec, "hill of honeycombs," for the honey once harvested in these hills. The process is old-school throughout: agave roasted in an earthen pit, fermented five to seven days in cypress tanks with wild airborne yeast, and double distilled in small clay pots. Arroqueño (Agave americana var. oaxacensis) is one of the giants of the agave world, a plant that can take 15 to 25 years to mature and weigh several hundred pounds, and it's famous for making some of the richest, most savory mezcal there is: green herbs, roasted vegetal depth, and a long, weighty finish. This is the new 2026 batch. Bottled at 49% ABV.Buy Tepanal Ancestral Arroqueño Mezcal online with fast shipping right to your door.
