OAXACA: MEZCAL JOURNEY

NOVEMBER 7 - 13, 2021 | TRIP OVERVIEW

Welcome

Thanks so much for choosing this incredible trip to Oaxaca. We love Oaxaca—it’s like our second home, and its people our extended family. On this trip, mezcal is the hero: from the 24 varieties of agave plants chosen by a seasoned palenquero, to steaming in-ground in a charcoal pit, to being distilled multiple times in traditional clay pots... The process takes weeks, but has been perfected through generations. We'll meet a fourth-generation mezcalero and taste some of the region's most sought-after, small-batch mezcals.

Of course, there's more to Oaxaca than mezcal. We'll also meet shamans and weavers, eat in rooftop restaurants and at a local artist’s home, and explore Zapotec pyramids and traditional mountain villages. If you travel to stimulate all of your senses, welcome to Modern Adventure’s Oaxaca!

There is so much to look forward to on this trip and we can't wait to share it with you. In the meantime, if you have any questions or if we can help in any way, please give us a call.
