COMMUNITY MANAGER

ABOUT MADRE

Madre Mezcal was launched in 2018 in Venice, CA and has become the fastest growing mezcal in the USA, and the second fastest growing agave spirits brand.  Produced in the hills of Oaxaca by three families of mezcaleros, each of whom have maintained the same artesanal processes that have been handed down through generations, Madre is truly a hand-made mezcal.

Up until now, the brand’s growth has come from supporting creative communities through collaborations, sponsored openings, performances and events, as well as through content published on the Madre Journal, Radio, and Instagram.
