Mezcal Real Minero
"Our tradition dates back to the end of the 19th century, in the past time of Santa Catarina Minas, when everything in mezcal was very different, totally at odds with what it now means in our lives."
"Our tradition dates back to the end of the 19th century, in the past time of Santa Catarina Minas, when everything in mezcal was very different, totally at odds with what it now means in our lives."
We know from family talks that our mentor in mezcal was the great-grandfather Don Francisco Ángeles - “Papa Chico” as he was known in town. "Papa Chico" was the first link in the forging of the family legacy. “It is the root of Mezcal Real Minero”.
Our ancestors have told us that the conditions of yesteryear in the profession of "making mezcal" were very precarious. It was not possible to engage in another activity in the entire region and this work was done out of mere necessity, since it represented the only source of income to acquire what they did not produce.
Originally the name that was given to those who produced Mezcal until the beginning of the XXI century, was that of "palanqueros".
