Dos Hombres Celebrates Cinco de Mezcal/Mayo
Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston’s Dos Hombres Mezcal has coined the phrase Cinco de Mezcal! That being said, they wanted to put forth some cocktail recipes to celebrate the upcoming Cinco de Mayo (ehm Mezcal) holiday in style.
Dos Hombres is the product of multiple generations of proud Mezcal producers. Mezcal maestro and partner, Gregorio Velasco’s ancestors can be traced back to San Luis del Rio’s origins and foundation, as one of the pioneers of Mezcal production using mud jugs. Dos Hombres is a unique blend of the finest Espadin agave, hand-selected from the hillsides of a small village in Oaxaca, Mexico. The mezcal presents an appealing fragrance and a rich taste that engages the palate, ensuring the distinctive smoothness of our brand. Smoky and smooth, the Dos Hombres mezcal pairs well with any season and every possible cocktail combination.
