Mezcal de Leyendas Vinata Solar is a celebration of traditional craftsmanship and the living landscape from which great mezcal is born. Rooted in the Leyendas Mezcal philosophy of honoring place and process, this expression brings the soul of artisanal production directly to your glass.


Crafted in the time-honored tradition of small-batch mezcal production, Vinata Solar reflects the deep connection between master distillers and the agave plants they cultivate. The name itself speaks to the solar energy and natural rhythms that shape every stage of production, from harvest to distillation, resulting in a mezcal of remarkable character and authenticity.


  • Nose: Earthy and inviting, with layers of roasted agave, subtle smoke, and hints of wild herbs that evoke the rugged terrain of mezcal country.
  • Palate: Rich and textured, offering notes of toasted oak, dried fruit, and a gentle minerality balanced by the warmth of the agave itself.
  • Finish: Long and satisfying, with a lingering smokiness and a clean, dry agave sweetness that invites another sip.

Mezcal de Leyendas Vinata Solar shines in a classic Mezcal Negroni or an Oaxacan Old Fashioned, where its depth and complexity can carry the cocktail without losing its distinctly artisanal character.


Best enjoyed neat or with a single large ice cube to allow the aromas to fully open. Mezcal de Leyendas Vinata Solar is a thoughtfully produced small-batch mezcal from the Leyendas portfolio, ideal for the discerning spirits enthusiast exploring the breadth of Mexico's mezcal tradition.

Mezcal de Leyendas grew out of La Botica, which its founders opened in 2005 as the first mezcal bar in Mexico City. From there they spent years traveling rural Mexico in search of respected maestros mezcaleros in agave regions far beyond Oaxaca, from the haciendas of San Luis Potosí to the vinatas of Durango. Each mezcal is tied to one maestro, one agave and one place, and the range covers both classic and rarely distilled agaves. Leyendas also made what it calls the first mezcal ever distilled using only solar energy.

Map of Durango, Mexico, with Nombre de Dios marked

Nombre de Dios sits in southern Durango, about an hour southeast of the state capital, at roughly 1,750 meters. Founded in 1562, it is considered the oldest town in northern Mexico and was named a Pueblo Mágico in 2018. The semi-arid plateau around it is home to wild Cenizo agave (Agave durangensis) and sotol, and Durango holds denominations of origin for both mezcal and sotol. Vinatas around town still roast agave in underground pits and ferment it in wood or stone.
