Mezcal

The bottle

Frida in every detail.

The shape
A French decanter from the late 1800s, like those in the house where Frida grew up. Our own molds: no one else has this bottle.
The cork and the seal
A wooden crown and, on top, a wax-style metal seal bearing Fulang-Chang: with wax, it seals a real letter.
Fulang-Chang, the guardian
The spider monkey that entered her paintings watches over the name in the glass, like a coat of arms.
The signature and the braille
Fridu's signature engraved — and on the back, the brand written in braille, so those who cannot see can read it too.
The wings and the milagrito
Two wings mark the 750 ml and hold a burning heart of Oaxaca: a wood that ignites and never burns away — Frida's freedom.
The crown of three flowers
Turn the bottle and the three flowers trace a thorned heart — Frida's wounded heart.

The symbols

Fulang-Chang

Fulang-Chang

Crowning the cork like a coat of arms: the artist's most beloved spider monkey, guardian of every bottle.

The milagrito

The milagrito

At the neck hangs the heart of Oaxaca: a burning heart, bound to Frida's love for her land. Remove it, wear it, collect it.

The crown of flowers

Frida in three expressions

The story of the 41%

A destiny, not a whim of alchemy.

Why do all our spirits proudly bear that 41% alcohol by volume? Behind the mystery stands our Frida Kahlo — who, at exactly forty-one, painted a «Self-Portrait» commissioned by her good friend, Dr. Samuel Fastlicht: dressed in a Tehuana gown, her face traced with tears that cannot hide the deep sorrow of her spirit.

It was also in that pivotal year that our painter, with iron will, chose to rejoin the Mexican Communist Party — an act that aligned her once more with Diego Rivera, her great love and her torment.

And so, while the mystery of the 41% remains in the glass, Frida's life offers us a mirror in which strength of spirit and art are inseparably entwined.
