Dangerous Don is a single-source, premium-quality mezcal. Created by Thea Cummings, it’s a story born from adventure and intrigue. A few years ago, Thea was keen for some time away from the restaurant industry, so she and a friend went travelling around The States, visiting a string of bourbon distilleries on the way. With Mexico next door, she decided to pop over the border. Then Frank appeared and everything changed. Frank was Thea’s neighbour; a guy who’d pretty crudely mix mezcal “from the mountains” with instant coffee, sugar and vanilla and stick it in a bottle. “There’s got to be something in this,” thought Thea, and so she went to Oaxaca and started making friends. Before long, she met a guy called Alvin Starkman – “a real dude” – who introduced her to Celso, her producer. Thea and Celso went about working out how to make Dangerous Don together. Eureka! A year later and the Dangerous Don Espadin came to life. A vibrant and tropical mezcal, it mixes perfectly in cocktails or sip it neat. Created with Thea’s passion, she partnered with Juan Nacho Diaz Cruz to create a refreshing mezcal. So, the big question: who’s Dangerous Don? It’s Thea’s father. He’s the one who inspired her to do all this. His attitude has always been a bit devil-may-care, which has given Thea the confidence to step out and make things happen.
