Mezcal Palenque Tour, Matatlán

Embarking on a Mezcal Palenque Tour in Matatlán, the 'World Capital of Mezcal,' offers the most crucial cultural insight for any Oaxaca visitor. This village in Valle de Tlacolula has over 50 traditional palenque distilleries preserving methods from 500 years ago, using clay pot or copper alembic stills over wood fires. Unlike larger commercial operations, these family-run establishments provide an intimate understanding of mezcal's heritage.
