Though technically not a "Tequila Proper" the El Compadre I know of hails from Oaxaca, Mexico. I have a case of it sitting right here in my bar/restaurant in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. Since it's from Oaxaca and not from Jalisco, Mexico it can't be called a "Tequila," and is referred as a "100% Agave" instead. It's the same stuff, but different. Really great value and fantastic regardless of nomenclature. We buy it from an importer located in Antigua, Guatemala who owns a restaurant called Cafe No Se. Check out www.ilegalmezcal.com. These are the same people and be sure to check out their mezcal, too!!!
