Monte Alban is the authentic Mexican spirit distilled from the agave plant in the centuries-old tradition and technique. The worms live in the agave and, historically, one is added to each bottle. Legend says that the worm gives strength to anyone brave enough to eat and some even believe it acts as an aphrodisiac. Please note this product no longer contains the worm.
Almost 500 years ago Spanish conquistadors looking for a rum substitute began distilling an Aztec soft drink made from the Agave plant. They ended up with a premium spirit called mezcal.
