Mezcal for Events and Corporate Gifts

Mezcal for Events and Corporate Gifts
In short

for an event, estimate bottles with this formula: guests × pours per guest × ounces per pour ÷ 25.4 (ounces in a 750 mL bottle). For example, 100 guests with two 1 oz pours need 8 bottles. Pair a versatile mezcal for cocktails with a special one for the toast. For company gifts, match the bottle to the relationship: ZUNTE for teams, ZUNTE Gold for key clients and ZUNTE Swarovski® for a special recognition.

How much mezcal to buy?

Bottles = guests × pours per guest × oz per pour ÷ 25.4

Guests Pours per guest Pour 750 mL bottles
50 2 1 oz 4
100 2 1 oz 8
100 3 1.5 oz 18
200 2 1 oz 16

If you are serving mezcal cocktails, add each recipe's amount times the expected number of cocktails. Round up.

Event ideas

  • Welcome toast: a copita of mezcal with orange and worm salt.
  • Mezcal bar: two or three labels from light to intense, with someone to explain each one.
  • Signature cocktail: a recipe with the house mezcal, named after the event or company.
  • Pairing station: mezcal with dark chocolate, cheeses or Oaxacan snacks.

Details that make the difference

  • A card with the mezcal's story: agave, origin (San Luis del Río, Oaxaca) and how to sip it.
  • Copitas or veladoras as a complement.
  • Plan early for the holiday rush (November and December).
  • Check the recipient company's gift policy; some limit alcohol.

Responsible drinking

Always offer water and non-alcoholic options, serve food and encourage safe rides home. Legal drinking age only.

How this applies to ZUNTE

ZUNTE's three expressions cover every gift and event level, and every bottle carries the motto “Even if you have everything on earth, never stop looking at the sky”, a message that fits thank-yous and celebrations.
