what customers say

“There is no better mezcal experience outside of Oaxaca whether you are a seasoned mezcal drinker or a newcomer to it. Jon really opens up the world of artisanal mezcal, not just through his unique collections of directly sourced mezcals but also through a first hand knowledge of the processes and the characters behind them” - Giles.B, Sin Gusano customer

WHAT The industry says

“Jon is one of the most dedicated and enthusiastic people working in the agave industry. His constant searching for rare and delicious distillates means Sin Gusano has some of the most interesting and diverse bottlings found in Europe. When I see Jon, I’m always excited to try his unique mezcal”. - Melaine Symonds, Quiquiriqui Mezcal & London Mezcal Week

Organiser

Sin Gusano
The Sin Gusano Project promotes the diversity and heritage that exists within the world of agave spirits, while broadly encouraging a more conscientious form of consumption. Splitting time between the UK and Mexico, we source micro-batches of craft spirits from different distillers, run a roaming pop-up mezcal bar, and operate Europe’s only agave spirits subscription – the Mezcal Appreciation Society (MAS). The project operates a 10% profit share initiative.

    This was a great night out - informative, fun and generous pours of some very special finds! Jon gave a very engaging presentation on production, spotlighting the producers he sources from and their nuanced approaches, answering our wide range of questions, providing tasting notes and sharing his deep knowledge on the world of agave based spirits. Very happy to have taken away lots of insights as well as two firm favourites from the night with a generous discount! I can't wait for the next one (hint, hint!)

    Really informative, entertaining and knowledgeable, Jon hosted a great night and even stuck around for a few bevies afterwards for some quality chat. We had a brilliant time and even made some new pals along the way. Shout out to Mariachi’s for the scran & cocktails too! Highly recommend buying a bottle too. Cheers! John & Georgia (Team Cubanos)
