Dubbed the “Heart of Mezcal” in Oaxaca, Santiago Matatlán is a small community, but major distilling town in the district of Tlacolula. Accounting for nearly 60% of the mezcal produced in the state, it’s truly earned the moniker. Mezcaleros who achieve notoriety in the town do so amid the stiffest competition in all of Mexico. The Cortés family, of course, are among of the most famous of Matatlán’s maestros. The Espadín they use grows between 5,500-5,900 feet in a nearby mountain canyon, brimming with natural beauty and rich with incredible agave diversity which includes wild Tepeztate, Tobalá, and Coyote.
