ABOUT:

Mezcal San Cosme was founded in 2010 by three childhood friends with a shared vision: to gather the absolute best of Mexico and share it with the world. Taking its name from Saint Cosmas, the patron saint of doctors, the brand was built to represent a modern, cosmopolitan way of understanding mezcal without ever abandoning its deep Oaxacan roots. Crafted in Santiago Matatlán, Oaxaca (often considered the world capital of mezcal) under the guidance of Master Distiller Don Neto Mateo, San Cosme marries a contemporary, design-forward identity with uncompromising ancestral traditions. Their production strictly honors authentic, artisanal methods: utilizing mature agaves, cooking them in traditional conical earthen pit ovens, milling the cooked hearts with a heavy stone wheel (tahona), naturally fermenting the mash in wooden vats with fresh spring water, and finally double-distilling in classic copper stills. The result is an award-winning spirit designed to be accessible, highly versatile, and completely free from common clichés.
