What's the Story Behind the Paper Plane Cocktail?

The Paper Plane is a relatively recent addition to the world of cocktails, but it's quickly become a beloved classic. Originally created in 2007 by bartender Sam Ross, the drink was a homage to M.I.A.'s hit song "Paper Planes." It's known for its unique balance of sweet, sour, bitter, and herbal flavors. Traditionally, the Paper Plane is made with bourbon, Aperol, Amaro Nonino, and fresh lemon juice. However, in our Mezcalum version, we bring a delightful twist by incorporating our signature Mezcal, adding a smoky depth that's truly irresistible.

Why Choose Mezcalum for Your Paper Plane?

Our Mezcalum Paper Plane isn't just a cocktail; it's an experience. By substituting traditional bourbon with our artisanal mezcal, we bring you a sip of Oaxaca's rich history and tradition. Our mezcal's distinct smoky flavor, derived from the heart of Espadin and Cuishe agaves, transforms the Paper Plane into an exotic and memorable drink. This version not only celebrates the art of cocktail making but also honors the spirit of Oaxaca, where our mezcal is passionately crafted.

What Makes Mezcalum's Version Unique?

Our Mezcalum Paper Plane is unique because it incorporates the depth and complexity of our all-natural, artisanal mezcal. With zero carbs, zero sugar, and zero additives, our vegan and non-GMO mezcal offers a healthier alternative without compromising on flavor. This cocktail is not just a drink; it's a journey through the heart of Mexican heritage, one sip at a time.
