This is just one bottle from a new line of mezcals from Durango. La Majadera’s marketing copy focuses on the brand’s name which says:
“Mezcal inspired by the women of the Mexican Revolution, they were called majaderas or female soldiers, they managed incredible feats, commanded armies, brigades, and combat units, they knew the terrain.
Beyond the myth of Adelita, these women had their own names and a pride for Mexico in the long lineage of guerrilla fighters.“
