Few spirits carry the same mystique as mezcal, and few brands embody its craft like Ilegal Mezcal. Handcrafted in small batches by fourth-generation mezcaleros in Oaxaca, Mexico, Ilegal represents tradition with just the right amount of edge. No gimmicks—just agave, sun, and time.
The Ilegal Mezcal Collection
Joven
Un-aged and unapologetic, Joven is fresh and vibrant. Expect eucalyptus and mineral aromas layered with green apple, citrus, and the subtle heat of red chiltepe.
Reposado
Rested for six months, Reposado finds balance between brightness and depth. Caramelized pear and bitter orange lead into clove, butterscotch, and a smooth touch of vanilla.
Añejo
Aged 13 months, Añejo is rich and complex. Maple and clove mingle with dark chocolate and sweet agave for a slow, memorable finish.
No Fussy Openers
Breaking into a bottle of Ilegal Mezcal is its own ritual. Hold the neck firmly, press your thumbs against the cork’s wax seal, and it gives way cleanly—no corkscrew, no peeling. Just crack, pour, and savor.
About Ilegal Mezcal
Every drop of Ilegal Mezcal is made with 100% Espadín agave, double distilled in the Santiago Matatlán Valley. The brand is committed to authenticity and biodiversity: no artificial colors, yeasts, flavors, or additives—ever.
From harvest to the first sip, Ilegal maintains a respect for Oaxaca’s land and traditions. What you taste is the purest expression of agave, kissed with smoke, crafted with patience, and finished with purpose.
Final Pour
Whether you’re reaching for the crisp clarity of Joven, the warm spice of Reposado, or the layered richness of Añejo, the Ilegal Mezcal Collection delivers an experience that’s as bold and uncompromising as the brand itself.
