Where to Taste Mezcal at Its Origin in Oaxaca

"The breezy sister property to Otro, Hotel Escondido Oaxaca merges a similar eye for brutalist lines with pre-Hispanic details in a restored colonialist heritage house. The property sits a few blocks off the tourist path, a boon for those seeking a quiet retreat from the festive pandemonium around Oaxaca’s zocalo. The entire hotel is open, airy, and filled with oversized tropical plants. Several levels of terraces offer nooks for hiding with a book or cup of coffee. The kitchen incorporates organic, local ingredients into its Mexican-based menu and handmade tortillas for its tacos while sourcing artisan mezcal from the region’s noted producers. End the day at dusk beneath the pergola-covered bar with a bowl of guacamole, tortilla chips, and a lime-spiked Mezcalita. From $320" - Lauren Mowery
