In the first installment of our three-part mezcal documentary, we head deep into Oaxaca’s rugged Sierra Sur to trace the roots of this singular spirit. Alongside Los Angeles restaurateur Ivan Vazquez, we visit traditional palenques and meet the maestro mezcaleros working with wild agave, ancestral tools, and techniques at risk of disappearing. This is the story of mezcal before the boom — a spirit once made in secret, passed down through generations, and shaped by place, labor, and fire.
