Agave de Cortés is a Mexican artisanal mezcal brand from the state of Oaxaca, rooted in the traditional mezcal-making heritage of Santiago Matatlán, one of the most renowned centers of mezcal production.

The brand is part of a longstanding family tradition, emphasizing the preservation of artisanal techniques, local expertise, and the distinctive characteristics of different agave varieties. Its portfolio includes mezcal made from Espadín agave, available in Joven, Reposado, and Añejo expressions, as well as varieties produced from other agave species.

The family's mezcal-making history dates back to 1840, with the fifth generation of the Cortés family now carrying on the tradition. Production is led by master mezcalero Rolando Cortés, and the brand belongs to Casa Cortés, the company also behind the renowned mezcal brands El Jolgorio and Nuestra Soledad.

The mezcal is crafted using traditional methods, including roasting agave hearts in earthen pits, crushing them with a stone tahona, natural fermentation, and double distillation. Particular attention is given to agave cultivated on family-owned land and preserving the distinctive characteristics of the local terroir.
