Carta de Amor Mezcal

About the Brand

“Carta de Amor desde Oaxaca” literally translates to “Love letter from Oaxaca.” The team responsible for creating this brand completed the final steps of this passion project during the pandemic, which greatly limited their ability to visit Oaxaca in person during this time. The final sourcing steps were completed by mail and every package they received from Oaxaca was like a “love letter.” Hence the name for the brand.
