El de Barra

“El De Barra” means “the one for the bar”, also known in Mexican slang as “the house mezcal”. It was created to share the Mexican daily ritual of coming home at the end of a long day and knowing that the house mezcal is waiting at the table. You´ll find it at the entrance usually on the “Ofrenda” to pay respect to the dead and welcome the living.

As Mezcaleros, they offer a well-crafted, artisanal mezcal at a competitive price, because they don’t have a “middle man”.  They are agronomists that cultivate the agaves, the producers that extract its magical spirit, and the ones that encase it in a bottle. Their mezcal is distilled by their Maestro Mezcalero Francisco Jeronimo, third generation of Mezcaleros. El De Barra is crafted in their “palenque” with the knowledge and cultural heritage passed down through generations of Mezcaleros from this region. They use 100% sugars of our agave Espadín, cultivated in the white terroir of the elevated highlands (1,600m) of the central valleys of Oaxaca, in Tlacolula de Matamoros.
