A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

The story behind Mexico’s mezcal making process

The story behind Mexico's mezcal making process
Just like tequila, Mezcal is made from the large desert agave plant which can usually be found in states such as Oaxaca. It takes a minimum of 8 years ...


At the host’s request, the bartender brought across three exquisitely designed bottles of clear alcohol. It was certainly a high-end area of Mexico City, and as the host explained the production of the drinks, the stories and the design process that is invested into every bottle, he expressed a deep, sincere passion for the drink.
Little did I know, I was, in fact, speaking to the owner of the mezcal brand. When he wasn’t drinking his distilled agave product, the bottles were being sold for 1,500 Mexican pesos ($70).
What stood out from the experience, aside from the smokey taste of the drink, was the Mezcal owner ’s unrelenting excitement and passion in his national drink. Although tequila has become the international image of Mexican culture, Mezcal is an equally firm contender that is beginning to make waves across the globe and becoming a trendy bar order.
The love and pride surrounding Mezcal liquor also derive from the timely and usually hand-made production process. Just like tequila, Mezcal is made from the large desert agave plant which can usually be found in states such as Oaxaca. It takes a minimum of 8 years for the plant to mature before it can be harvested for mezcal production, yet some varieties require much longer before they are ready.
From there, the process requires farmers to cut the plant, at which point sections are cut, buried in fire pits and cooked for up to two weeks. The cooked product is then crushed into a fermented juice, mixed with natural yeast and distilled in either copper or clay urns. Whereas copper stills are more popular, the truest element of smokiness comes from the clay pots which can only be used a few times before the structure becomes ineffective to the process, adding to the price. After being twice distilled, the process can then lead to barrel ageing and eventual bottling.
The culture of mezcal shines through the abundance of mezcalerias found across Oaxaca state and beyond, where tours and tasting sessions are common and bottles can rack up hefty prices. The drink is famous for its earthy, potent taste which tends to be sipped before biting into a slice of orange covered in tajin spices or worm salt, which is quite literally what you imagine. Alternatives come in flavoured mezcal varieties such as coffee flavour, and the liquor also contributes to a plethora of mean cocktails across the country.
‘‘Remember that mezcal can be the product of more than 20 species of agave, so sip it slowly so you can taste the agave notes. As the people of Mexico say ‘that mezcal is meant to be kissed,’’ Mezcal Ambassador Simone Bodini recently told the Business Insider.
Whilst traditionally a worm was put in the bottom of mezcal in order to differentiate the drink from tequila, these days the tradition is combined with a new passion for Mexican traditions in the modern limelight. It joins the ranks of tequila and also pulque, all deeply entrenched in culture and history, which are must do’s on any visit to Mexico.

#Travel: Mexico prepares for the Day of the Dead




As Mexico prepares to celebrate the Day of the Dead, visitors from around the world are invited to experience this unique holiday. Every corner of the country, from the island of Janitzio in Michoacán, passing through the towns of Chiapas and the great Zócalo of Mexico City, will be dressed in color and tradition waiting for millions of visitors who seek to participate in one of the most spectacular celebrations that exist.
Named Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008 by UNESCO, the Day of the Dead is an unforgettable experience for both visitors and locals alike. It is an ancestral legacy inherited from different pre-Hispanic cultures combined with the celebration of the Catholic All Saints’ Day and is observed from the end of October through the first week of November. Based on popular belief, the deceased return each year to visit their relatives and coexist with the living to enjoy their offerings such as favorite foods and drinks.
The Day of the Dead in Mexico is one of the most important celebrations in the world and it attracts more than 7.5 million international tourists each year who wish to experience its cultural and gastronomic traditions. The set of practices and traditions that occur in the country for this holiday, both in cities and smaller towns, are mainly located in states such as AguascalientesGuanajuato, Michoacán, OaxacaPueblaSan Luis Potosi and Mexico City.

What is the Day of the Dead?

In Mexico, death is considered part of the cycle of life and has been celebrated since pre-Columbian times. For example, in Aztec mythology, the deceased embarked on a long journey before reaching Mictlán, the region of the dead.
The various elements and rituals associated with the celebration make the Day of the Dead unlike any other holiday in the world. Families create altars in their homes and offer the favorite foods and objects of sentimental values and memories to the souls of their loved ones. Typical objects at the altar include the characteristic cempasuchil flower and the delicious Pan de Muertos.
Traditions vary in all regions and some are unique to Mexico’s states and cities. Here are some notable traditions:
  • Year after year, Aguascalientes performs the Calaveras Festival that pays tribute to the artist José Guadalupe Posada, creator of the famous “Catrina,” a symbol of the Day of the Dead celebrations.
  • Guanajuato hosts the famous Catrinas Parade, which takes place every November 1, in which people dress like these characters from a theme that changes in each edition.
  • One of the biggest festivities in Veracruz is the Mictlán Festival, which welcomes musical performances and artists.
  • In Oaxaca, the residents build the Plaza de la Muerte, where tourists can get lost among the products that are handmade by artisans specifically for these dates. For this, traditional comparsas (groups of singers) play music for more than 20 hours for the celebration of the traditional “Muerteadas.”
  • In San Luis Potosí, the Xantolo is the most important celebration in the area. On November 1, there is a vigil with prayers. On November 2, in the indigenous communities, it is customary to take the offerings to the pantheons and to adorn the tombs with flowers for the souls that, according to the belief of the region, remain on the earth all month.
  • The island of Janitzio in Michoacan honors the “angelitos” – those who passed away as children – on a nocturnal procession. It takes place on November 1 where canoes are adorned with countless candles, carrying delicious dishes and drinks, and accompanied by music to welcome those who return from death.
  • In Mexico City, millions of visitors come together in the San Andrés Mixquic pantheon to receive the souls of the dead at sunset; and in Xochimilco, the staging of La Llorona¸ the Weeping Woman, a legend that attracts locals and strangers year after year.

Remember when you could laugh at this silliness without having to hire a lawyer?
