Los Convidados is a unique collaboration between Michael Barbaria and his close associates Bruno Sarabia and Darian Penichet. This specialized Mexican company is dedicated to promoting authentic Mexican spirits: mezcal, tequila, gin, and rum, highlighting traditional know-how and the richness of the Mexican terroir.
This 100% natural agave-based spirit comes from the Lineño maguey cultivated in the prestigious Jalisco region, known for the exceptional quality of its agaves. Distilled in January 2023 at the Chacolo artisanal distillery, this mezcal benefits from a unique fermentation thanks to indigenous yeasts, which lasted 25 days in wooden vats covered with agave fibers, thus ensuring remarkable aromatic complexity. The distillation was carried out in a traditional wooden still from the Philippines, heated by fire, an ancestral method that preserves all the authenticity and intensity of the aromas.
