Handcrafted in the remote Sierra Madre del Sur. Small batch. Pure Cupreata.
Mezcal made the original way.


MOQUA Mezcal is born high in the mountains of Guerrero, where wild Cupreata agave grows on steep ridgelines rich with volcanic minerals. Our mezcal is distilled in small batches using traditional, ancestral methods — no shortcuts, no industrial processes, no compromise.
We craft MOQUA with a singular mission:
capture the honest taste of the mountain, untouched, unaltered, and true to its origins.
Our mezcal comes from one of Mexico’s most remote terroirs: the volcanic slopes of Guerrero’s Sierra Madre del Sur. This wild region is shaped by steep ridges, deep canyons, and cool mountain nights that naturally stress the agave, intensifying its sugars and aromatics.
The volcanic soil, elevation, and untouched landscape create a flavor profile that cannot be replicated anywhere else.

This is mezcal made slowly, intentionally, and with respect for the land.

Cupreata is one of Mexico’s rarest and most flavorful agave species. It grows wild or semi-cultivated in Guerrero’s mountain ranges, absorbing minerals from ancient volcanic rock. Its naturally high sugar and terpene levels create a mezcal that is bold, herbal, bright, and incredibly expressive.
This is why Cupreata mezcals consistently outperform mass-market Espadín — they taste like the mountains they come from.






MOQUA isn’t just mezcal — it’s a modern reflection of mezcal’s true origin story.
Centuries ago, Filipino sailors arrived on the coast of Mexico and introduced early distillation techniques to local communities. Mexican tradition met Filipino innovation — and mezcal was born.
Ruben, born in Guerrero, and Geoff, of Filipino heritage, carry on the same cultural fusion that sparked mezcal itself.
MOQUA is the rebirth of that story — a spirit crafted through the meeting of two worlds.
