Client and team gifts
Give something they have never tasted
Small batch mezcal from three villages in Oaxaca, made by three maestros we work with by name. We import it ourselves and warehouse it in Commerce, so gifts across Southern California are handled by us, start to finish.
Tell us about your giftNo minimums, no obligation. You will hear back from a founder.
Close to home
We are in Commerce and we hold our own California licenses, which changes what we can do for you.
We handle it ourselves
We import our own mezcal and warehouse it in Commerce, and we hold our own California licenses. For gifts going to Southern California addresses, nothing passes through a third party shipper on the way to you.
No shipping wait inside SoCal
Local orders do not sit in a fulfillment queue for ten days. Tell us your date and we will tell you straight away whether it works.
We can bring it to you
For larger local orders we would rather hand it off in person than hand it to a carrier. It also means we can fix anything on the spot.
Outside California
We ship to 47 states. It takes longer and there is a shipping cost, so give us more lead time for out of state recipients and we will make it work.
Why this bottle
A gift gets remembered when the person receiving it has never seen anything like it.
Nobody else is sending this
The default client gift is a bottle of wine or the same whiskey everyone recognizes. Nobody forgets the first time they taste wild agave mezcal from a village in Oaxaca.
Three maestros, by name
Abel Martinez in Santo Domingo Albarradas. Eugenio Lopez Garcia in Ejutla. Rodrigo Martinez in San Baltazar. Agave roasted in an earthen pit, crushed under a stone tahona pulled by a donkey, fermented with wild yeast, distilled in copper. No machines anywhere in it.
You are talking to the founders
We are a small independent brand. When you reach out you get one of the three of us, not a gifting portal and not a rep.
What people come to us for
Every request is different. We scope each one with you instead of selling a fixed package.
Client and executive gifts
For the relationships worth more than a gift card. Our wild expressions, Tobala, Tepeztate, and Cuishe, are harvested from agave that took a decade or more to mature. There is not much of any of them, which is exactly why they land as a single standout gift.
Team and year end
Our Espadin is the one we recommend when the list is long. Fully mature eight year agave, 45 percent, and the bottle most people open first. Reach out early for the fourth quarter.
Milestones and closings
A deal signed, a launch shipped, an anniversary hit. Better than another engraved plaque nobody has room for.
Holiday parties and events
We also run private tastings and mobile bar service. If you are gifting and hosting, we can do both and it usually costs less than treating them as two vendors.
How it works
Tell us the details
The occasion, roughly how many people, your budget range, where the recipients are, and your timeline.
We come back with a plan
Which expressions fit, how they get there, and what it costs. If something you want is not possible, we will say so rather than find out later.
You decide
No pressure and no obligation. If it works, we handle it. If it does not, we will point you somewhere useful.
Straight answers
How do I start?
Send us the occasion, approximate headcount, budget range, and your timeline. One of us will get back to you.
Is there a minimum?
No. We have handled a single bottle for one important client and we have handled gifting across a full team. Tell us your number.
Where can gifts be sent?
Anywhere in Southern California we handle directly. Beyond that we ship to 47 states, which takes longer and adds a shipping cost. Spirits shipping is regulated state by state, so send us your recipient list and we will confirm what is possible before you commit to anything.
How much lead time do you need?
More is better, especially for the fourth quarter. Local orders move faster than out of state. Tell us your date and we will be straight with you about whether it is realistic.
Which expression should I send?
Espadin when the list is long. Tobala, Tepeztate, or Cuishe when it is one person and you want it to land. We will help you pick once we know the budget.
Can you do custom packaging?
Sometimes, depending on quantity and timeline. Ask us and we will tell you what is actually possible rather than promising something we cannot deliver.
Can you pour at our event too?
Yes. We run private tastings and mobile bar service alongside gifting. Mention it and we will scope both together.
Tell us what you have in mind
The occasion, roughly how many people, and when you need it. We will come back with what makes sense and tell you plainly what we can and cannot do.
