Gusano Rojo Mezcal Tequila 750 mL
Add an adventurous, artisanal mezcal to your back bar with Gusano Rojo—a 100 % Espadín mezcal crafted in Oaxaca and bottled at 42 % ABV. Known for its vibrant flavor and distinctive worm (“gusano”) motif, this 750 mL expression appeals to both mezcal aficionados and guests seeking an authentic smoky spirit experience.

  • Traditional Production
    Estate Espadín Agave: Hand-harvested mature agaves roasted in earthen pits, crushed with a tahona wheel, and fermented using wild yeasts.
    Double Distillation: Small-batch copper pot still distillation preserves complex agave and smoke notes.

  • Flavor Profile
    Nose: Inviting smoke balanced by green agave, citrus peel, and a hint of tropical fruit.
    Palate: Medium-bodied with roasted agave sweetness, pronounced smoke, and layers of black pepper and earthy minerality.
    Finish: Long, warming, and slightly spicy—ideal for neat sipping or robust cocktail builds.

  • Menu Versatility
    Classic & Signature Cocktails: Elevate a Mezcal Negroni, Oaxacan Old Fashioned, or craft a “Red Worm Paloma” (mezcal, grapefruit soda, lime).
    Neat & Flights: Showcase its terroir in tasting flights or premium neat pours—great for mezcal flights alongside Del Maguey or Ilegal.
    Smoky Mixology: Use as the base for tiki-inspired or barrel-aged cocktails that benefit from its bold smoke profile.

  • Operational Efficiency
    Standard 750 mL Bottle: Fits seamlessly into existing spirits setups—no special shelving required.
    Consistent Yield: Uniform small-batch production ensures predictable flavor and pour costs, reducing bartender dial-in time.

  • Guest Appeal & Profit Potential
    Authentic Story & Branding: Distinctive worm graphic and Oaxaca provenance drive guest curiosity and social-media engagement.
    High-Margin Upsells: Command premium by-the-glass pricing on neat pours, flights, and signature mezcal cocktails.
    Differentiation: Stand out with a recognizable mezcal icon that appeals to adventurous drinkers and the growing mezcal trend.
