Born in the high-altitude fields
of Oaxaca.

We believe a cocktail should be a transformation, not just a drink. Copper & Ash was born in the high-altitude fields of Oaxaca, where the earth, the fire, and the spirit meet.

Perfected in the North Bay, Copper & Ash is the union of traditional artisanal Mezcal and vibrant, small-batch cold-pressed lime, jalapeño purée, and organic agave nectar. Sunburn is our tribute to the blazing Mexican sun and the ancient smoke of the roasting pit — a balanced ritual of fire and fruit.

"I wanted to capture the exact feeling of standing in the red dirt of Xaaga at sunset — the heat of the day meeting the cool mountain air. Sunburn is the result of that search for balance." — Donnie Aldridge, Founder

Harvesting agave
01

The deep, smokey soul.

Our process begins in the ground of Oaxaca. We hand-harvest 100% Espadín agave, roasting the hearts in traditional stone pits. This is "The Ash" — the deep, smokey soul of our Mezcal. It is a slow, ancient method that preserves the history of the land in every drop. The heat of the pit imparts a complexity that cannot be manufactured or rushed — only earned through time and fire. Each roast is a decision made by hand, guided by generations of knowledge passed down through the families of Miahuatlán.

Bright,
electric agave.

Our spirit is double-distilled in small copper pot stills. This "Copper" brings out the bright, electric notes of the agave, creating a liquid that is as clean as it is complex. We don't rush. We bottle only when the balance is perfect.

Sunburn.
The tribute.

The Sunburn is our tribute to the Oaxacan heat. We blend our artisanal Mezcal with fresh-pressed lime juice, a touch of raw agave nectar, and the slow-burn of jalapeño. It is vibrant, sophisticated, and ready to pour.
