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 reliable, expressive, and understood. In capable hands, it gives buyers real mezcal character 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.

01 · 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.

02 · 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.

03 · The cuts

Know where to stop.

Cheap well mezcal rewards yield. That creates an obvious temptation: keep more heads and tails than you should. A disciplined mezcalero makes less mezcal and a much better one.

04 · The taste test

Put your well on trial.

Set Tipo Bueno beside your current well and smell them blind. If one smells of agave and the other of solvent, smoke, or rubber, the decision has been made for you. Ask your chef whether a compromised cocktail belongs beside food they worked hard to perfect. All to save two dollars? Don’t be that bar.

If lowest case cost is the whole brief, we cannot help you.

If you want clean, serious mezcal at a case price built for the well, that is precisely why Tipo Bueno exists.Learn to taste the difference

Built to move through the market

Where does
Tipo Bueno
work?

Behind the bar

Clean agave aroma and 45% ABV give cocktails definition without forcing the guest into a premium call.

On the shelf

A label people remember, a story staff can tell in one sentence, and liquid worth bringing them back.

Across a market

A broad-use mezcal that can open restaurant, bar, and retail doors instead of living in an aficionado-only corner.

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.

The names matter because accountability matters: when a buyer asks who made the mezcal, where it was made, and how, we have an answer. More important, the answer shows up in the glass.

Meet the mezcaleros

A useful sort of thief

The opossum
brought the good stuff.

The opossum is easy to underestimate. That has served him well. He matters to the ecosystem and appears throughout the old stories of mezcal.

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.”
