Día De Los Muertos is an important cultural holiday celebrated in Mexico, when the living honor those who have come before them.
This holiday is often marked by the commemorative ritual of sharing Mezcal amongst family and friends, a little always poured on the ground to honor Mother Earth and the Ancestors.
Vida de Muertos is a special 45 ABV edition of Vida Clásico inspired by the batches of Mezcal that are distilled in autumn in the village of San Luis del Rio and shared for this celebration.
Ripe maguey (agave) Espadín is traditionally roasted underground, naturally fermented and twice distilled in small wood-fired copper stills.
This mezcal has a nose of tropical fruit and warming spice, creamy palate with floral notes, green herbs and poblano peppers, with a complex finish.
“Stigibeu” – a term meaning, “For Mother Earth and our ancestors” — is the traditional Zapotec gratitude invoked before sharing Mezcal neat from a Copita, a traditional Del Maguey terracotta sipping cup.
Marigolds are symbolic of community gathering and play a meaningful role in traditional celebrations of Día de los Muertos.
Each bottle of Del Maguey Vida de Muertos that carries our special Marigold flower represents a donation we’ve made to our community initiatives in Mexico.
