California, someday
A second table, someday
Our whole focus today is one Oaxacan mezcal, to be made in clay with a maestro family of the Central Valleys of Oaxaca. But there is a longer idea we’d rather say out loud: a California agave spirit, made with the patience of wine country. It is roughly a three-year vision, honest about being that far off.
Why now
So you can watch it happen
We’re not going to bottle something in California this year, or next. No product, no price, no ship date. If you ever see us attach one before it’s real, hold us to every word of this paragraph.
What exists is a direction: an agave spirit that respects California’s water and its wine-making craft, named plainly because it would not be mezcal. If that someday interests you, a quiet list for it sits below, apart from the Sobremesa Club. The size of that list decides whether the line gets made.
California, someday
Hear it first, someday
A quiet list for a three-year vision. We write only when there is something real to share.
Meanwhile
The real work is in Oaxaca
Everything we’re building right now, the clay and the search for the family, lives there. If you want the thing that is happening, it is the mezcal. The rest can wait.
