Made by the Contreras family in Rancho Tepa, Aconchi, Sonora. Produced in the Sonoran Sierra Madre Mountain Range for more than 300 years. Bacanora was banned for 77 years (1915 – 1992) due to Prohibition. Hidden from the public eye but refusing to disappear thereby becoming a clandestine activity, and with time a symbol of regionalism and identity.
Did you Know?- The distillation of Bacanora was illegal until 1992, being bootlegged byvinaterosfor many generations. Since 2000 Bacanora has been issued with an origin denomination bill by the Mexican government. This means that only mezcal produced by the agave variety grown in the Sonora municipalities can legally be called Bacanora.
