This is not a guide to the 'Veuve Clicquot of Mezcal.' We have zero interest in the ordinary, the predictable, or whatever your brother-in-law recommends.
We're here for the glitches—the wild agaves, the clay pot distillations, the mezcaleros who'd rather die than use a diffuser.
We're here for the bottles that give your palate an existential crisis, tell stories you wouldn't believe, and feel like a rupture in the matrix of mass-produced spirits.

Maximum bang for your weirdness buck. Esoteric bottles that won't bankrupt you but punch way above their weight in complexity and soul. Hidden gems that make you feel like you've stumbled onto a secret nobody else knows.
Pure intensity. The most mind-bending, heart-touching, intellectually challenging bottles, regardless of price. Once-in-a-lifetime experiences that demand you sit in silence, put your phone away, and actually listen.
The most esoteric, mind-bending bottles that somehow made it across the border. Available in the US, but good luck finding them.
The craziest, most interesting stuff. Wild agave, ancestral methods, specific producers. This is where the real magic lives.
