We do not have a set location, but instead come to where you need us to be and set up our bartending station where you are. We are not set up one wheels just yet.

We recommend that you book our service once you have a venue and guest count confirmed. To ensure we can accommodate you, early booking is definitely recommended.

Absolutely! We take as much care in our zero proof recipes as we do in our alcohol-based recipes. Our services can be used for completely alcohol free events, or we can include a zero proof option on your menu, or do an entirely new zero proof menu (as an add-on service.)

We will consult with you to come up with a menu unique to your event and tastes. Once the menu has been decided on, we will provide you with a detailed shopping list with sourcing tips, so you know where to find things. We will take care of all the mixing ingredients and garnishes.

Due to Nova Scotia liquor law, we are only able to provide the service of making the drinks. We cannot provide for or charge for drinks. We provide a shopping list and resources for sourcing the items on your list.

We source our edible ingredients locally whenever possible, often from our own garden or from one of the amazing local farms in the region. We source items specific to Oaxaca from Oaxaca when possible and we aim to support Canadian and Mexican businesses above all else.

We have general and liquor liability insurance. We are happy to guide you through the permitting process. Obtaining liquor and venue permits is the responsibility of the client.

We are definitely aiming to do this in the future! We can’t wait to bring more Oaxaca to Canada and more Canad(ians) to Oaxaca (future mezcal tours are definitely one the agenda.)

The first package is suited to more intimate private gatherings where you want somebody to be there to create some exceptional cocktails while you enjoy your guests. In this case, you would provide us with a space and access to sinks for cocktail creation and hand-washing, and we would take care of the rest. For larger events where you want our visible presence to be more elevated and you need our sink and full bar setup, then the second two packages are more suitable.

Each package is a little bit different in terms of the scale of what we bring with us. For all packages, you can expect 1 bartender, all the tools he needs for drink preparation, his kit of house-made concoctions and mixers, bar table with stylings. For the 2 larger packages, there are more styling elements and we have a bigger bar with self producing sinks installed. Glassware rentals can be added for an additional fee, however we do not offer dishwashing service.

We believe that the act of preparing and enjoying a well crafted cocktail is a ritual and experience in itself. One example of the simplicity of our rituals is that in Oaxaca it is customary to kiss your glass before enjoying your first sip “Beso”. There are small sayings and salutes that are commonly used in mezcal culture. Mezcal is also enjoyed in conjunction with several traditions including Día de los Muertos and Guelaguetza and mezcal rituals are commonly practiced as an act of remembering (recuera.) Rituals can be incorporated into your event with something as simple as one word, or something as involved as lighting of palo santo, copal, candles and a few words or gestures appropriate for the occasion.

At this stage we do not. We have plans to build a trailer in the future. For now we setup in indoor and outdoor space. Our basic package is us with a table and stylings, and you would need to provide us with a sink station. Our two larger packages come with our full bar setup where we have sinks built in, and we do our premium styling setup.
