Not a surprise given the import of taste in their glorious food and Mezcal options. This special spot is looking to be at the forefront of this scene. Featuring craft offerings from all over Oaxaca, this is a delightful market where you can sit and enjoy a beer or a flight and learn about Mexican beer, or just pop in to buy some to go. They feature a few other artesian market items as well (honey, granola), but are primary a beer spot. Tried a couple of solid IPAs from Ammon brewing (a single and a DIPA) that were excellent as well as a super-special porter made with Mezcal from Cervesa Portforio. Unique and a perfect example of how this region can contribute fresh options to the beer scene. Janice was a perfect host/barkeep, chatting with us/informing us on styles, but also leaving us alone to chat as well. Also told us they'll be adding taps for drafts soon. Tl,dr--great spot to pop in to try out some new beers in a casual setting or buy some quality stuff to go. Hope this quality addition to this wonderful town thrives, and new beers keep brewin' here in Oaxaca.

I believe this Mezcal distillery is popular on the tour circuit. It's just outside of Oaxaca City,…read moreand they seemed to have their tour experience down to a science. I visited as part of an all-day tour. It was the last stop, so I was mildly sleepy by that point, but their spirits livened me right up. I bought so much to go too. Happy to support a local spot! They were *generous* with their tastings and so friendly. I loved the mezcal with the worm (ha) as well as the passion fruit and cappuccino blends. I bought an airplane bottle of agave syrup to go too after trying that - yum!

This is a mezcal distillery that I visited on a tour with the company Oaxaca by Locals. They gave…read moreus a brief tour of the facility in English and allowed us to try some mezcal biproducts like agave syrup. After the tour, we tasted four mezcals and maybe a dozen or so fruticremas and liqueurs. All of the mezcals we tried were super smooth although fairly low ABV (35% for the aged ones and 38% for the blanco). They had some snacks for us to nibble on as a palate cleanser as well. I didn't love the fruticremas with the exception of the café; the rest tasted pretty artificial. Prices are HIGH. I saw the same products being sold even in other tourist locations like Mercado Benito Juarez for about half of the price. Even though you may be tempted to buy after getting a little buzzed at the tasting, you can easily save by waiting to return to el Centro before buying. Overall it was a fun experience but i definitely felt pressured to buy overpriced mezcal after the tasting.
