ABOUT
Casa Cortés is an example of the mezcal tradition, being present in all the steps for the creation of mezcal, from sowing to distillation, consolidating with affection and respect the community that has grown with tradition.
In the course of the year 1840 Matatlán, Oaxaca, was; just like today, one of the main stages of improvement in the processes of artisanal mezcal. The Cortés family contributed to this movement while building its legacy as one of the most distinguished families for the care they give first-rate quality in each of their processes.
Casa Cortés is an example of the mezcal tradition, being present in all the steps for the creation of mezcal, from sowing to distillation, consolidating with affection and respect the community that has grown with tradition.
With 179 years of experience, Casa Cortés has created three brands, which due to their concepts of selection, maturation and origin highlight different cultural and environmental attributes transmitted from generation to generation, of knowledge acquired by their ancestors.
Currently in the 5th generation of the Cortés family, a community has already been built that enjoys the meeting of flavors, aromas and textures of our drinks, drinking them on important occasions.
