Doña Vega Espadin

Oaxaca

Doña Vega Espadin is a joven mezcal that balances prominent smoke with fruity sweetness. The nose offers clean aromas of flowers and live oak pollen without being overpowering. On the palate, notes of papaya, mango, and pineapple emerge alongside a subtle sweetness in the mid-palate. A slight tingle reminiscent of Szechuan button precedes a finish defined by white pepper and gentle heat. It lacks artificial or chemical smoke notes, making it suitable for sipping or mixing in cocktails while remaining accessible to those new to the spirit.

About the Brand

Doña Vega Mezcal began as a passion project by founder Sonya Vega Auvray. After discovering mezcal, she became obsessed with the bold taste, but found that many versions were too smoky or intense. After traveling throughout Oaxaca she created Doña Vega Mezcal. Her creative blend honors the bold tradition and unique flavors of mezcal with a modern twist.
