The origin story

FROM THE HILLS OF MITLA, OAXACA

corner videocorner videocorner videocorner video

El Cabrón Añejo is crafted from 100% Espadín agave, carefully cultivated until it reaches full maturity at 8-10 years.From the rugged hills and sacred valley of Mitla, each agave piña begins a journey shaped by patience, fire and precision. The piñas are roasted in below-ground pits, machine-crushed without using animals and double-distilled in copper stills.The spirit then rests for one year in American oak whisky barrels, stored in cool darkness as it absorbs the wood's tannins and subtle layers of flavour.The pure essence of the agave remains: earthy, rich and unmistakably Oaxacan, woven into a tapestry of guava, star fruit, quince, anise, maple and dark chocolate.No additives. No shortcuts. Just artesanal mezcal transformed by oak and time, until fire becomes depth and patience becomes character.

Time-honoured ritual meets innovation

Patience, fire, precision shape every drop

Never any additives

HOW TO SERVE

FAQ

Where is El Cabrón made?

El Cabrón is produced at Casa Cabrón Destilería, our custom-built distillery in the sacred valley of Mitla, Oaxaca. Here, centuries of mezcal-making knowledge meet modern innovation as our maestro mezcalero creates mezcales that balance heritage, progress and uncompromising mastery.

What is the difference between mezcal and tequila?

Tequila is one specific type of mezcal made from Blue Weber agave, while mezcal can be crafted from many different agave varieties. Mezcal develops its distinctive complexity through roasting rather than steaming, allowing fire, earth and agave to shape its flavour.

How should I serve it?

El Cabrón Añejo is rich and complex. Enjoy it neat in a whisky snifter, paired with dark chocolate, or use it to bring a deeper Oaxacan character to classic whisky and bourbon cocktails.
