A BETTER WELL.
A BETTER COCKTAIL.
AN EASY DECISION.

CLEAN AGAVE ◆ 45% ABV ◆ BUILT FOR THE WELL

The bottle that earns its place

Easy to drink.
Hard to fake.

A well bottle has one job: make every pour better without wrecking the cost of the drink. Tipo Bueno is made slowly enough to taste clean, bottled at 45% so it stays present, and priced for volume.

Agave100% Espadín

Espadín is common for a reason. In capable hands it tastes unmistakably of agave—without rare-agave pricing.

StyleArtesanal Joven

Unaged and clean. No oak, no coloring, and no story your staff has to memorize before they can sell it.

Proof45% ABV / 90 proof

Enough proof to survive citrus, ice, and the bartender’s other ideas. No anemic cocktail.

MethodCopper distilled

The production is the reason it tastes right—not the pitch.

Taste the work

Most well mezcal is made in a hurry.
Ours smells like agave.

If you buy the well, you are buying the aroma of every mezcal cocktail on the menu. Heat the horno too aggressively, race the still, stretch the cuts, and the mistakes follow you into the bottle.

The roast

Roast, don’t burn.

An impatient horno scorches the agave. Guaiacol gives you campfire; p-cresol gives you burnt rubber, tar, and Band-Aid. Some people call that smoky. It is not. It is a production fault.

The still

Low and steady.

A still run too hot drags harsh volatiles into the spirit. Acetone smells exactly like the thing under your sink labeled acetone. Slow the still down and the cooked agave gets a chance to speak.

The cuts

Know where to stop.

Keep more heads and tails and you get more liters. You also get their faults in the bottle. A good mezcalero cuts for the mezcal, not the yield.

The taste test

Put your well on trial.

Set Tipo Bueno beside your current well and smell them blind. If Tipo Bueno smells like agave and yours smells like solvent, smoke, or rubber, why are you still pouring yours? Ask the chef if that cocktail belongs beside their food. All to save two dollars? Don’t be that bar.

Want the cheapest case? Buy something else. Want mezcal that smells like agave and works in the well? That is Tipo Bueno.

The opossum gets remembered. The mezcal brings people back.

SAN DIONISIO OCOTEPEC · SANTIAGO MATATLÁN

Tipo Bueno bottle showing the artisanal mezcal label

Experienced hands · Repeatable quality

Made by people who know what they’re doing.

Carlos Méndez Blas in Santiago Matatlán and Maximiliano “Serafín” García Gerónimo in San Dionisio Ocotepec know how to make clean well mezcal at commercial volume without racing the horno or the still.

We name the mezcaleros because you should know who made what you are buying. But a name is not a sales pitch. If the work does not show up in the glass, the biography is noise.

Meet the mezcaleros

A useful sort of thief

The opossum
brought the good stuff.

One story says the opossum stole mezcal from the demons and gave it to the people—a theft in the public interest. In Spanish, un tipo bueno is a good guy, a decent sort. That makes the opossum a Tipo Bueno.

The bottle you bring

“Not precious.
Not cheap.
Great Guy, Great Mezcal.”
