Atención súper amable, gran diversidad en mezcales, precios justos.

Un muy buen lugar para probar mezcales no comerciales. Recomendación de las mezcalinas de Maracuyá y Jamaica. La atención de los anfitriones es más que buena te explican y recomiendan de cada mezcal. Sin duda es un imperdible en Oaxaca ya que no es un lugar escándaloso y se puede disfrutar el mezcal y charlas Agusto con amigos o pareja. Saludos desde Mérida

Nos topamos con este bar y nos sorprendió porque es pequeño pero muy lindo y acogedor, la atención es muy buena y tienen variedad de mezcales a muy buen precio. Me parece precio Justo y todo es muy rico. Sin duda queremos volver. 😃 así que si estás por la zona no te pierdas de tomarte unos mezcales. Aprovecha la promo de chela + mezcal.

Excelente lugar para degustar mezcal, conocer de sus procesos y pasarla bien. Llegamos ahí porque tenía 5 estrellas y queríamos ver el por qué, y lo descubrimos. El servicio de el Sr armando y su esposa es increíble, ambos son muy amables además de que, nos gustó escuchar todo lo que tenían para decirnos. Definitivamente regresaré ahí cuando vuelva.

Es una parada necesaria al visitar Oaxaca. Si han degustado mezcal, recomiendo probar sus ensambles o agaves Karwinskii y si no, pidan una cata para conocer y entender los nuevos sabores. Sin duda una muy buena experiencia con atención y precios excelentes.

Un lugar muy cerca del zocalo, muy agradable muy buen ambiente y musica, para los que no tomamos tanto mezcal esta bien la degustacion te atiende Armando y Lety, super amables y te explican qué mezcal te recomiendan hay de tamarindo, maracuya, pechuga les recomiendo el sierra negra, cierran a las 11pm tiempo suficiente para degustar y pasarla muy bien con amigos o pareja, en definitiva mi próximo viaje regresaré.

Voy a agregar un poco de contexto. Actualmente (2024) la ciudad de Oaxaca se ve notablemente mucho más visitada por personas extranjeras, de lo que sumado a otros factores internos me parece, como visitante nacional de la CDMX, que los productos y servicios han encarecido bastante y en algunos casos incluso la calidad ha bajado. Bueno, pues este lugar me parece que entra en las excepciones a esa regla actual. A la fecha sigue siendo asequible, con precios razonables (en muchas otras mezcalerías los precios están 50%, 75%, 100% elevadas o incluso más) y la calidad puede ser similar o inferior. A lo concreto: el lugar es muy agradable, en una ubicación cercana al centro, pero más tranquila (con menos gente). Los precios como ya mencioné son muy buenos, razonables y justos. Lo más importante: la calidad del mezcal es muy muy buena, probamos 12 agaves diferentes, todos con características muy marcadas y variadas unas a otras, de gusto muy diferenciables, pero todos de gran calidad y sabor. El que menos me gustó me pareció muy bueno, y el que más me gustó sin duda ha sido de los mejores que he probado. Si solo quieres probar la degustación de 3 mezcales es una muy buena opción. Pero por economía y si ya conoces y has probado el mezcal sugiero ir directo al copeo de 2oz. A esto le sumamos la atención que también es muy buena y cálida por parte de las personas que nos atendieron. Quisiera volver para platicar más sobre su trabajo porque sin duda es muy interesante. Regularmente no escribo reseñas muy largas, pero este lugar me pareció una joya 💎 dentro de las opciones disponibles actualmente.

Excelente lugar armando y Lety me recomendaron su cava todo excelente

Me gusto mucho, tiene gran variedad de mezcales y los precios van de acuerdo. Tienen de muchas cervezas y bien frías y al precio justo. Las mezcalitas esta muy buenas, pedimos una de tamarindo y no esta dulce sabia a mezcal. Este lugar está muy bueno además de que esta en una zona tranquila sin el bullicio del centro. Para personas que quieren estar tranquilas tomando un trago.

El mejor lugar para probar mezcal,, es bonito y acogedor, amable desde el primer momento. 100% recomendado para los que no conocen de mezcal. Es bueno. Si o si debes vivir la experiencia.

Had the chance to sit by the bar and talk with the owner, who very kindly explained us what we were drinking and tought us about mezcal. An amazing experience. They make their own worm salt, and it is delicious. Truly recommend this mezcaleria!

Kristin Edstrom

We really enjoyed our visit to La Mezcaleria. Armando was very knowledgeable and helped us select mezcals from 3 different women owned distilleries to try. This is a small and intimate tasting room and we enjoyed sitting at the bar and chatting with Armando. Don’t miss La Mezcaleria when in Oaxaca!

Dr. Rodrigo Silva

Armando, the Mezcal Maestro described the history of the Mezcal production in Oaxaca. He told us about the many, many palenques that he has visited and the varieties of Mezcal. He is a very knowledgeable Maestro, happy to share in a very engaging manner. The Mezcal selection is awesome! We let him guide us through the different Mezcales and had a wonderful experience. We highly recommend this place.

Sam Reffsin

Can't say enough great things about this place. This is THE place to do a mezcal tasting that is affordable. 3 mezcals for 200 pesos. Run by a couple, Leticia was the absolute kindest host. I recommend you sit at the bar if you'd like to interact with the owners.

Eliécer Díaz II

We came along a lovely cozy place; it was delightful. Thanks for helping us with the selection of drinks. All kinds of mezcal in the tasting were delicious. A great place to come with friends, :)

Silvia Wong

Armando shared his knowledge about Mezcal with us. He explained the different types of Agaves and shared the Mezcal process. After a few Mezcal, we needed some food. We got some tamales from across the street and Armando pull some plates and forks for us to enjoy our food while continue sipping Mezcal and learning more from him. If you can, please stop at this place. This experience was one of the highlights of our trip to Oaxaca. GRACIAS ARMANDO!

I wanted to try a lot of different types of artesanal mezcal and this is the place for it. I really liked the place and atmosphere. It was like I'm visiting grandpa who is really knowledgeable in mezcal, so he could help me to choose my favorite one. And since it's family it's not expensive. Please don't miss this place while you're in Oaxaca.

Sandra Vega

First place I tried mezcal in Oaxaca and did not disappoint. The gentleman was very knowledgeable and kind. It’s a great place to enjoy great music and a nice chat. Highly recommended!

Filip Murár

An amazing place to try a variety of mezcals. I came here on my own and tried their tasting option of three different mezcals for $200 (actually had two of those haha) - all were very different but very tasty. Moreover, the owners were very friendly and welcoming. Despite my limited Spanish skills, I had a lovely conversation with them - about mezcal, about different cultures, our families etc. Would highly recommend!

Erick Verran

One of the best evenings we had in Oaxaca. No frills, just excellent mezcal. The owner is knowledgeable and genuinely cares about your experience.

Josh Clark

Great range of mezcal, groovy little space, small, interesting. The manager is great with describing the qualities of the mezcal, and speaks English and Spanish. Highly recommend!

Klaas Van Steen-Bontje

Tried our first Mezcales here today! 130 pesos for 3 tastings, and the Madrecuishe was our favorite. Super friendly owner and a relaxed atmosphere.

Jose Bernal-Meade

The best place to have a mezcal tasting, they have an infinite amount of different mezcals. Very cozy place, ask for Armando or Leticia, they will definitely take care of you. Prices are very good, very great experience here. If you are doing tasting try the jabali, cucharilla and sierra negra. 3 x 130 pesos

Evelyn Rios Stafford

La Mezcalería is a must-visit place in Oaxaca. It is an excellent mezcal tasting room, where you can learn about local mezcal in a relaxed atmosphere that is great for conversation. The friendly owners can tell you so much about the different flavors, farms and distilleries. Get a tasting flight (or two!) - you will enjoy it so much.

Victoria Mitchell

I just had the most amazing mezcal tasting here with 3 other people I’m travelling with! We walked in from the street around 3pm without a booking and got to try LOTS of mescals (~16) with the amazing bartender Armendo. It turned out a fraction of the price than if we had booked an arranged mezcal tasting with other vendors. The bartender Armando was so accommodating and explained the background of each mezcal we tried. If you are in Oaxaca and want to try some mescal this is A MUST!!

Corin

The bar is an amazing place for Mezcal lovers or first time explorers. It is run by a super friendly and experienced couple who share a lot of insights about the destilleries and the different kinds of Mezcals. The variety of their mezcal sortiment is impressive and the tasting offer is incredible. The prices are very fair. I'd say it is one of the best Mezcalbars in Central Mexico (after having the chance to try also some in Mexicocity and Puebla). Though the place is small - it was never crowded, and we've always found a place and felt very welcomed.

Lupe Martinez

We had such a great experience learning about mezcal. Don Armando was a great host and very knowledgeable. They have a good variety at great price for a flight! 100% recommend.

This small bar offers great value Mezcal tastings (100 or 130 pesos for 3 shots, depending on the qualities of Mezcal chosen). The owners of the bar were extremely friendly and walked us through the tasting, discussing the flavours in each Mezcal. It was so good we returned for a second tasting later in the day.

Dorothea Gallmeister

Best bar to try and learn about Mezcales. The owners are a nice couple and so welcoming. Armando knows the producers and offers you tastings at a great price.

eder jonatan pulido gonzalez

Excellent range of Mezcales, you can taste 3 different types for 100/130 pesos(May 2022), the owener can recommend you some types and explain how to drink it and enjoy it. Highly recommended

I had a list of well known mezcalerias in town to try artisenal products. I was walking around the city taking picutres when I noticed this small mezcalaria. I chatted with the owner about mezcal pro…
