Our Story
Born in Mexico City to a Canadian mother and a Mexican father, Jorge, Roberto and Dani Gutierrez were raised between cultures, flavours, and the soulful rhythm of two very beautiful, yet different worlds.
From an early age, our mother introduced us to the language of the kitchen. Through her love of cooking, we learned the beauty of flavour, the power of nourishment, and the joy of sharing meals. Dinner time was our favourite part of the day.
This early spark led each of us into the world of hospitality, where we deepened our love for food, drink, and not only the flavours, but the stories behind them.
As lifelong cuisine lovers and passionate students of culinary craft and traditions, it has always been our dream to create a family owned mezcal brand, one that would honour craftsmanship and tradition, while bringing the rich culture of mezcal to Canada and beyond.
In 2022, our beloved mother, Michèle,
passed away after a brave journey with cancer.
Her passing became a sacred turning point: a reminder not to wait on our dreams, but to pour them into something that would be both meaningful and impactful.
A couple years later, after much hard work, dedication and persrverence, MadreMía was born.
We wanted to make the most delicious mezcal on the market, while also preserving the unique culture and traditions that make it so very special.
So this bottle is our offering to her.
But it’s also for all the mother figures we share: Madre Tierra and Madre Naturaleza (Mother Earth and Mother Nature), the Divine feminine energy, and every nurturing soul who makes the world more loving, beautiful, and alive.
Our mother now lives in every drop.
This mezcal is an invitation to slow down, to savour and to share the beauty of life;
While also being fully present with the people you love most.
And to raise a glass to the moments that truly matter in life —MadreMía Moments.
Love,
Jorge, Roberto & Dani
