We found this wonderful little Mescalier just off the plaza de Santo Domingo. Called ‘Los Amantes’, the interior was designed by the local artist Guillermo Orgin. It’s like a little cabinet of curiosities.

Los Amantes serves only locally produced artisinal Mescals – made in the traditional mode in small batches by individual mescaleros. You can taste a huge variety served from large glass jugs. And purchase whatever pleases you which is then decanted and sealed in beautiful locally produced bottles.

They have a ‘branch’ in the east village in New York. Part of a growing movement to bring artisinal mescal to the US.
