Rumaldo Flores: Mezcalero of June 2025

Meet Rumaldo Flores — Maguey Melate’s Mezcalero of June 2025. Rumaldo is a true palenque maestro: a producer, a curator of land, and a steward of the complete ecosystem that makes mezcal possible. His palenque isn’t just a place to distill — it’s a living system where agaves grow, animals thrive, mesquite wood fuels the roast, and generations of knowledge guide every decision.
