Buen Bicho Mezcal

Good Bug, Great Mezcal

Buen Bicho Mezcal is a playfully named but seriously crafted artisanal mezcal from Oaxaca — "buen bicho" meaning "good bug" in Spanish, a nod to the famous gusano worm associated with mezcal tradition. Made from Espadín agave using traditional pit-roasting and distillation methods, Buen Bicho delivers the authentic, smoky character of Oaxacan mezcal in an approachable and honest expression.
