About Us
Born the hard way
The brand was born in pandemic times, when everything was dead. We were born in an era when everything meant grinding on and taking life's punches. That's where the name comes from.
Today we produce, bottle and sell artisanal mezcal for both Mexican and foreign clients. The starting point never changes: quality is proven by opening the bottle.
A blow. A hard knock. A hell of a hit. That's a chiquetazo.
Our craft
The agave is cut by hand
The agave is cut by hand down to the piña. Physical work, done outdoors, that begins long before the mezcal reaches the bottle.
Oaxacan lands
A connection to Santiago Matatlán
More than bottles, we offer a connection to the lands of Oaxaca, above all to Santiago Matatlán. The first contact with Chiquetazo is a tasting: clients open whichever bottle they like and judge the quality, and above all the price, for themselves.
And the deal closes the way it should: with a ¡salud! and a handshake.
