Honoring Our Roots and Embracing Innovation
At Tepanal Ancestral, we are dedicated to crafting traditional agave spirits that honor our roots. In just two years, we have established ourselves as a reference point in California, importing 17 batches of 100% agave mezcales that reflect our passion and commitment to quality.
Today, we take a bold step towards innovation with the launch of our first "destilado con" (infused spirit), a new line that reimagines how to enjoy our mezcales while preserving the unique and ancestral essence that defines us.
Flavor Profile: A Unique Sensory Experience
Our first destilado con pays homage to the flavors and aromas of traditional Mexican festivities. In this singular expression, our ancestral agave spirit is infused with banana, tejocote, raisins, almonds, guava, cinnamon, and apple—ingredients that bring an unparalleled character and complexity to each sip.
Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: From the first moment, the aroma envelops you with funky, sweet, and tropical notes, where banana and ripe fruits take center stage.
- Entry: Smooth and sweet, offering a velvety start that prepares the palate for what’s to come.
- Mid-Palate: Light and fruity, with the vibrant flavors of tejocote and apple as the highlights.
- Finish: Cinnamon and raisins add a subtle warmth that balances the profile, while almonds provide a touch of depth. The finish is clean and elegant, leaving a lingering memory of fresh fruits and delicate spices.
Pairing and Recommendations
This spirit is ideal for sipping neat, allowing you to appreciate every nuance of its complex flavors. It also pairs perfectly with traditional desserts like flan, tres leches cake, or candied fruits.
Tradition and Innovation in a Bottle
Crafted with the same rigor that defines our traditional spirits, this first destilado con enhances the unique notes of agave and adds a fresh, contemporary dimension to the tasting experience. It’s an invitation to explore new ways of enjoying spirits while staying true to the authenticity and essence that define Tepanal Ancestral.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is all your inventory online?
We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.
Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?
Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.
However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.
What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
