There’s a pre-Hispanic myth that says goddess Mayahuel owned the plant called agave, and Quetzalcoatl convinced her to share it with humans, which soon discovered the plant’s sacred properties, being mezcal one of the most important ones.
With time, this ancient knowledge was blend with the European distillation techniques and has been shared for centuries between local families that kept the tradition alive.
The best mezcales nowadays are the ones that follow the traditional process provided by master mixologists of the region. 9Reinos follows a 9-step artisanal process inspired in the Mictlan legend that says souls must travel 9 realms to achieve eternal rest.
In the end, 9Reinos is not only made from 100% agave espadin, but is also a sacred spirit that lives in the soul, the soil and the myths of Oaxaca.
