About this mezcal
Mezcales de Leyenda Grandes Leyendas is a limited edition series that recognizes great master mezcaleros over the age of 70. The first edition, released in 2016, is produced by and honors mezcalero Don Anastacio, who created this ancestral mezcal using wild agave Cupreata from northern Guerrero. All of the special editions from Mezcales de Leyenda have a special social cause. Through the edition ‘Grandes Leyendas’, the brand is donating a significant portion of the proceeds to Don Anastacio and his family.

They also have some special edition, small-batch mezcals. The brand also releases the Pelotón de la Muerte line of mezcals.
In 2021, the brand (under Artisanal Distillates, LLC) raised money via the StartEngine platform at a $32.7 million pre-money valuation.
