Description

Mezclogo Mezcal – This mezcal from San Dionisio Ocotepec, Oaxaca, delivers a beautifully balanced and unique tasting experience, showcasing the traditional craftsmanship and rich flavors of the Espadn agave.

Why does an “armadillo” represent Mezclogo?

The armadillo represents sacred knowledge, great spiritual power, joy, firm decision-making, a positive yet strong character, and happiness. They are good agricultural producers, respecting plants, beings of other species, and are generous with families and communities. Armadillos need to live strong, emotional experiences.

Armadillo Symbolism:

In the Zapotec towns of Oaxaca, Mexico, the armadillo means “small with armor,” and its scientific name is dasypodidae. The armadillo is named after the bony plates that protect its upper body. All other mammals with these characteristics are extinct today, making armadillos truly special.

In several Mexican states, they represent your nahual, the protective spirit acquired at birth, which will protect us for the rest of our lives according to the mysticism passed down from generation to generation.
