Ojo de Tigre
Mezcal Ojo de Tigre is a 100% Mexican artisanal mezcal, crafted with a unique blend of two different sustainably cultivated agaves, combining the sweet and smoky flavour of the agave Espadín from Oaxaca that converges with the herbal complexity of the agave Tobalá from Puebla, Ojo de Tigre delivers a well-balanced flavour profile that is both complex and approachable.
Created in a collaboration with renowned Mexican actor and producer Luis Gerardo Mendez, Casa Lumbre and now, in partnership with House of Tequila. Our teams work every day to maintain environmentally responsible production that reflects tradition and passion for creating a product of the highest quality.
Our name, Ojo de Tigre, comes from the semiprecious stone recognized as a universal amulet of good fortune. And to hold our exceptional spirit, we developed a unique and iconic bottle — inspired by the anforitas of yesteryear, personal amulets that people carried with them in good times and bad.
Ojo de Tigre is building its own history, with a clear objective: to be a bridge between the niche of those who like mezcal and those who are eager to get started. Ojo de Tigre believes in freedom of expression and love in all its forms to encourage everyone to look at each other without labels.
At Ojo de Tigre we believe in diversity and love in all its forms; we are a mezcal for everyone, unpretentious, human and close. We seek to exalt tradition and create bridges, conversations and open doors that allow us to connect beyond the mezcal.
