Mr Moustache Presents: An Evening of Mezcal

Overview

While you may have already heard, or even partaken, of Mr Moustache's famous "mezcal flights" designed to introduce us uninitiated Sydneysiders to this relatively little known Mexican tipple, the Bondi bistro and cantina will soon be hosting An Evening of Mezcal, offering a much more in-depth experience.

Husband-and-wife team Bildo Saravia and Regina Beuno Ros only stock the best of the best, and given prices for a neat mezcal rise to $60, An Evening of Mezcal, at $75 a head, is positively a bargain. Not only will seven mezcals be offered from the Casa Cortés boutique collection (along with small bites from the street food menu) but your mezcal experience will be guided by the expertise of traditional distiller Rolando Cortés, a visiting indigenous Oaxaca mezcal master.

The evening promises to feature the usual boisterous fun that characterises a night out at Sydney's undisputed go-to mezcal bar, where unbridled hospitality and mayhem go hand in hand. But what's more, it offers the chance to gain exclusive insight into the complexities of the spirit (the alcoholic, as well as the metaphysical, variety) that sits at the centre of Mexican culture.
