Discovering artisanal mezcal for the first time, I found Mismezcales’ selection outstanding—rich, diverse, and full of character. Yet the seller’s condescending tone was off-putting: when I mentioned “smoky” as a flavor, I was told this applied only to commercial mezcals, while here only artisanal, author-driven spirits were offered. Still, the guided tasting of five mezcals was captivating, with some I truly enjoyed. An impressive shop, though it could be more welcoming to newcomers exploring mezcal.
