More Info

A gorgeous spirit rivaling the world’s finest scotches and cognacs. Rounded. Full. Rich. Yet untamed.

Making mezcal is an art. Each lot of Ilegal Mezcal Añejo is aged to taste for 13 months, using a combination of new and used American oak, medium char barrels. Our barrels are sourced from Kelvin Cooperage, a family-run business since 1963.

Awarded "Best of the Best" - Best Aged Mezcal, year over year at the Tequila.net Awards.

How to open the bottle: Hold the neck of the bottle firmly and, with your thumbs, gently push the sides of the cork. When the wax breaks, pull up the cork and enjoy!

Fantastic mezcal to drink

"This is by far the greatest mezcal I have tried so far in my search to discover one that is genuinely good. It's smooth and doesn't require ice to be consumed straight. Without adding ice, I like mine somewhat chilled, so I place my glass somewhere cold for a few minutes. Yes, it is pricey, but if you want a special drink, it's worth it. It's difficult to limit yourself to just one since it is so excellent."

— Larissa (5/5)

Perfectly smoky and smooth.

"This is full-bodied and has a good smoke, but there is no aftertaste of "hot. " Since I am not your average "straight no chaser" kind of guy, I sip this one straight with just one cube. Seriously, if you want to be the sophisticated individual sipping your mezcal with a straight face and showing that you aren't acting, this is the jam. My favorite mezcal by far is this one. Pour one cube, then take a sip. Use something different if you like margaritas. This stands on its own."

— Yosef (5/5)

There are no better mezcals than this one.

"In addition to being one of the most genuine brands in the spirits market, with complete content, this is the greatest mezcal available."

— Axel S. (5/5)

More smoke is always better.

"Ilegal has recently served as my standard since it is exceptionally smooth and smokey, two qualities I've grown to adore in mezcal—the more smoke, the better."

— Hoffman37 (5/5)

Fantastic Ending

"A little bit of smoke and sweet agave flavor. Butterscotch-flavored, extremely long finish. Suitable for sipping."

— Corwin (5/5)

The ideal mezcal for sipping.

"I was a huge fan of the illegal mezcal. One of my favorite things ever. Agave flavor that is sweet with a hint of smoke. Perfect mezcal for sipping."

— Ragnar22 (5/5)

The best mezcal to sip!

"There is a heavy sense of smoke and a full mouth of agave. A kiss of wood enhances the Anejo even more!"

— Gentry (5/5)

Cost is not justified

"Smooth Tequila overshadows smoke in your taste. however not worth the cost."

— Humberto (2/5)

An excellent smooth mezcal

"I'm not really experienced with mezcal, but this is great. butterscotch, vanilla, with a faint sense of smoke."

— Pexcel F. (5/5)

Slick and Smooky

— Beatrice W. (5/5)
