A bigger story

Every mezcal deserves to be discovered.

Morelos has a great deal to tell.

The opportunity

To give free international visibility to producers of every size, so that new audiences can discover their mezcal, its origin, and the people who make it possible.

The opportunity

Mezcal from Morelos is ready to travel further.

A Denomination of Origin opens a new stage of visibility.

23 Municipalities with Mezcal Denomination of Origin
278 years Of documented mezcal tradition

History and productive value with national and international potential.

Our purpose

So that the mezcal of Morelos has a shared voice.

Arturo Rojas García-Luna and James Grant created this project to tell, alongside every producer, the stories that build the identity of Morelos mezcal.

Memory + discovery

The project

Two formats. One story.

The e-book builds memory; the app turns that story into discovery and action.

E-Book

Preserves the origin, the people, the territory and the craft behind every mezcal — a high-quality, cross-platform electronic book.

Explore the E-Book

App

Helps the public discover producers, get to know their mezcales, pairings and points of sale.

Preview the app (in development)

Together they connect story, product and territory with new audiences.

The e-book

Their story, told with them.

It is not a ranking.

We will not order producers by size, sales or popularity. Every story carries value for what it contributes to the identity of Morelos mezcal.

We will document

  • The origin and the people behind the project
  • The way of making it, the territory and the agave varieties
  • The stories behind their labels and identity photography
