Monte Alban Mezcal With Worm
Monte Alban is one of the most widespread Mezcals in the
U.S. It is carried by many distributors and liquor stores, and it is what many
people associate with the word “Mezcal.” Monte Alban has been making
Mezcal and selling it in the U.S. for a long time. They are well
established in the market, and many have had the experience of “tasting the Mezcal
worm”
For nearly a thousand years, Monte Albán existed as an
influential Zapotec center in Mesoamerica now known as Oaxaca, Mexico. It was
here that Spanish conquistadors first discovered the local fermented agave
drink called “pulque.” Soon, the Spaniards created “mescal” which led to
today’s tequila.
Monte Albán tequila and mezcal are made from 100% agave
following traditional processes resulting in award-winning and varied taste
experiences across the different Monte Albán expressions.
