“Tileño mezcal is a mixture of the four elements of nature: fire, water, earth, and air, that result in the inheritance of a liquid culture, which is made with the heart.” – José Angeles Elias
Maestro Mescalero José Angeles Elias began distilling Tileño in 2014. It has become known for its excellent quality and its approachable flavor. Exceedingly well-balanced, the taste of the agave comes through with a pleasing amount of smoke that enhances rather than overpowers.
