Follow Our Tradition

Intrepid Spirits are the exclusive distribution partner for Mezcal Los Javis in Europe. Los Javis is hand-crafted and bottled in the state of Oaxaca in the “Capital of Mezcal”, in Santiago Matatlán.

The Los Javis story began over three decades ago when Don Javier Mateo I and his wife Doña Gloria built the family’s first distillery (more commonly known as a palenque), with hopes of creating a spirit that embodied the essence of their Oaxacan tradition. Los Javis Mezcal is now the only family-owned and operated mezcal company which exports to the US, Europe and Asia.

Los Javis prides itself on being an environmentally friendly and ecologically sustainable company. They reuse the discarded milled fibers from the fermentation process to create all the paper components used to make each label.
