Flavors crafted in the highlands of Zacatecas.

Our History

Before we had a name, we already had a story. In the 1930s, in Tezontla, Zacatecas, our great-grandfather lit his dream inside stone ovens and created an artisanal mezcal that would become the essence of our family legacy.

A Dream in Stone Ovens

Where it all began

In the 1930s, in the small highland community of Tezontla, our great-grandfather began crafting mezcal in stone ovens, with mule-driven tahonas and copper stills. What started as a quiet spirit shared among families, travelers and muleteers at the foot of a spring that still exists today became the foundation of what would one day be known as Casa Mezcal Huitzila.

Mid–Late 20th Century

Forged in Huitzila

Over the following decades, our family found a natural home for this craft in Huitzila. The town gave the mezcal its name, and the Lamas López family gave it soul and purpose. Under the vision of Cenobio Lamas, Huitzila was consolidated as our production center, strengthening and preserving the artisanal process and shaping what would become a recognized mezcal brand in Zacatecas and the world.

Today & Beyond

Legacy in Every Bottle

Today, Casa Mezcal Huitzila is the living expression of four generations devoted to the art of mezcal. We select mature agaves under the Zacatecas sky, cook, ferment and distill with the care that only time can teach, and let Huitzila’s unique environment leave its signature on every batch. Then, dozens of local hands fill, seal and prepare each bottle so that time itself arrives intact at your table — a legacy from Zacatecas, meant to be shared with the world.

Selecting the Agaves

Our journey begins in Tezontla, Zacatecas, selecting mature agaves that have grown for years under sun, wind and altitude. Each piña holds the memory of the soil and the landscape that will later define the soul of our mezcal.
