For die-hard fans of the show, this isn’t just a spirit. It’s a piece of the Breaking Bad legacy translated into liquid artistry. Picture this: Nestled in the hillsides of a small village in Oaxaca lies a treasure trove of Espadin agave, carefully hand-selected to create a mezcal that redefines perfection. And who’s at the helm of this artistry? Gregorio Velasco, a maestro mezcalero whose mastery of the craft spans generations. His expertise infuses every bottle of Dos Hombres with an authenticity that’s as rich as the soil nurturing the agave.

Now, let’s talk flavour. The Espadin mezcal tantalises the senses with a symphony of scents and tastes. Imagine the aroma of crisp apples dancing with the sweetness of mangoes, intertwined with hints of local fruits and a whisper of wood from the traditional fermentation barrels.
But wait, there’s more. The Tobala Mezcal takes things up a notch. It’s a bold expression, owing its distinctive notes to the copal trees in the region that perfume the soil where Tobala agaves grow. This sacred tree’s resin, used for purification, imparts a unique essence to the mezcal.

Dos Hombres isn’t just a drink; it’s a journey that starts with the careful harvest of agave that’s matured for at least six years. The meticulous process involves cooking the agave in earthen pits, milling it with traditional stone wheels, fermenting it in wooden tubs using mountain spring water, and the slow, attentive distillation that results in a mezcal that’s nothing short of sublime.
For Breaking Bad enthusiasts, Dos Hombres is an extension of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman’s legacy. It is truly a testament to the show’s spirit distilled into a liquid masterpiece.
So, for all the fans out there looking for an experience that transcends the ordinary, Dos Hombres is a must-try.
