About the Founders:
Entrepreneur Alex Matthews was drawn to Mexico City through his passion for food, architecture, travel, and design. After venturing away from the city’s more well-known neighborhoods of Condesa, Roma, and Polanco, he found himself deep in the heart of the city’s produce and meat markets. There, his first encounter with Tepache left him nothing short of enchanted. Refreshing and flavorful, he was astonished to find there were hundreds and hundreds of variations of this ancient Mexican beverage that existed in the tepacherias and street food stalls throughout the city.
Through friends and colleagues, Alex was introduced to Rafael Martin Del Campo, a native-born Mexican who had learned how to make Tepache from his grandmother but also studied culinary arts and food science technology.
Call it fate or destiny, but Rafael’s passion for fermentation and love of his cultural heritage made him the perfect partner in developing De La Calle’s proprietary large-scale fermentation processes. Together, Alex and Rafael studied every version of Tepache they could get their hands on, working hard to adapt versions that would honor both the authenticity of this ancient drink, but also celebrate the innovative nature of culinary arts. The De La Calle Tepache recipes marry together traditional and modern ingredients in a quest to create something that is deeply drinkable and happy to be healthy!
Disclosure: I was provided a shipment of assorted flavors of Tepache. FTC requires that I disclose this freebie.
Getting the beverage before the Zoom meeting was very smart and helped me understand the beverage a lot better because I could taste the array of flavors. The free beverages don’t taint my review, they enable the review. I can’t tell you if I like something or if a flavor tastes authentic if I personally haven’t tried it.
It’s nice to be able to get this beverage ahead of Cinco de Mayo and be able to talk about how healthy this beverage is. I also like it quite a bit
Review:
I was lucky enough to be invited to a Zoom event where I got to meet Alex Mathews and De La Calle’s public relations people along with other influencers in food, spirit, and beverage categories. Not only did I have a great Zoom meeting to learn about Tepache beverages, but we were also treated to a shipment of Tepache in assorted flavors. The beverages are very tasty and I found several I liked. My favorite is the pineapple flavor. It’s absolutely amazing. I love that it’s very low in added sugar and is good for your gut too!
Thank you to De La Calle for the meeting and the Tepache shipment!
